Thermoelectric transfer difference of thermal converters measured with a Josephson source

Abstract
We have measured the thermoelectric transfer difference of two thermal voltage converters using a Josephson source and compared the results to similar measurements made with a conventional semiconductor source. Both sources use the fast reversed DC method. The Josephson source is an array of 16 384 superconductor-normal-superconductor Josephson junctions that is rapidly switched between voltage states of +0.5 V, 0 V, and -0.5 V. A marginally significant difference is detected between measurements with the two different sources.
