Popis: Intentionally weakened links were produced by diffusing Al or Cu into the grain boundaries of microbridges of high-T/sub c/ superconductors. Thin and narrow (70-130 mm) strips of Al or Cu were deposited across previously patterned microbridges and diffused into them for a short time at 300-450 degrees C. DC and RF Josephson properties were registered. I/sub c/R/sub n/ products of up to 3 mV were measured at 4.2 K for a laser-ablated Bi-Pb-Ca-Sr-Cu-O film (T/sub c/=64 K) and 0.9 mV at 77 K for a Y-Ba-Cu-O film (T/sub c/=87 K). Problems with electron resist residues could be circumvented by depositing a thin layer of Ag on the high-T/sub c/ superconductor before further processing.
