Abstract
We report measurements of dynamic resistance of high quality oxygen deficient SNS edge junctions with as the superconductor (S) and as the barrier (N). Below the gap a series of peaks in the dynamic resistance is identified as due to multiple Andreev reflections in the barrier while above the gap, the peaks are attributed to McMillan-Rowell oscillations Analysis of the subgap series in the 60 K yields a gap value of and a coupling constant of The McMillan-Rowell series yield the renormalized Fermi velocity of quasiparticles in the barrier
