SrTiO3 bicrystals with various types of grain boundaries were prepared by joining two single crystals at high temperature. By using the bicrystals, we examined their current-voltage characteristics across single grain boundaries from a viewpoint of point defect segregation in the vicinity of the grain boundaries. Current-voltage property in SrTiO3 bicrystals was confirmed to show a cooling rate dependency from annealing temperature, indicating that cation vacancies accumulate due to grain boundary oxidation. The theoretical results obtained by ab-initio calculation clearly showed that the formation energy of Sr vacancies is the lowest comparing with Ti and O vacancies in oxidized atomosphere. The formation of a double Schottky barrier (DSB) in n-type SrTiO3 is considered to be closely related to the accumulation of the charged Sr vacancies. Meanwhile, by using three types of low angle boundaries, the excess charges related to one grain boundary dislocation par unit length was estimated. In this study, we summarized our results obtained in our group.

We analyze the influence of thermal noise on the Shapiro steps appearing in the current-voltage characteristics of Josephson junctions. We solve the Fokker-Planck equation describing the system by a path integral method in the steepest-descent approximation, previously applied to the stochastic resonance problem. We obtain the Asymptotic Time-Periodic Distribution Pas(ϕ, t), where ϕ∈[0, 2π] and compute from it the voltage [Formula: see text], constructing the I-V characteristics. We find a defined “softening” of the Shapiro steps as temperature increases, for values of the system parameters in the experimentally accessible range.
