Phys. Rev. Lett. 21, 1241–1243 (1968)Simple Interpretation of the Josephson EffectReceived 26 August 1968; published in the issue dated 21 October 1968 The effect of a dc voltage to cause an alternating current through the barrier between two superconducting regions was predicted on theoretical grounds by Josephson. It is shown for the simplified geometry of a thin ring, interrupted by a single barrier, that this effect can be interpreted as a direct consequence of general principles which are closely related to those previously employed to explain the quantization of trapped flux. © 1968 The American Physical Society URL:
