Abstract
The voltage across a dc-current-driven Josephson point contact shunted by a resistive element with an applied small-amplitude ac signal current at frequency omega is calculated. First-order resonances are found to occur whenever +omega or –omega is near the Josephson frequency omega0. Second-order resonances occur whenever omega is near ±omega0/2. Singular perturbation techniques are used to obtain accurate approximate solutions for the contact voltage, in particular solutions when one of the above resonances occurs. These solutions all exhibit frequency (phase) locking when omega is near enough to ±omega0 and ±omega0/2, and frequency pulling otherwise. The regions where frequency locking occurs are obtained.
