| Popis: | In tunnel magnetic Josephson junctions (JJs), we have provided evidence of an inverse magnetic dependence of the critical current Ic(H), i.e., a shift of the Ic(H) curves in the opposite expected direction. We have established a self-consistent method to ascribe this unconventional feature to spin polarization phenomena at the S/F interface. Through a magnetic characterization of Superconductor (S) /Ferromagnet (F) /Superconductor (S) trilayers and a magnetostatic analysis of the devices, we show that the F-stray fields fail to determine the pattern inversion. The comparative analysis with the literature supports our thesis that this phenomenon can be explained in terms of inverse proximity effect and observed with a proper choice of materials and thickness of the ferromagnetic layer involved in the junction structure. More generally, our approach proves that a careful investigation of the magnetic field pattern in magnetic JJs can lead to the detection of novel effects arising at the S/F interface. |
