Abstract: The structural and electric properties of high temperature superconducting YBCO SNS Josephson junctions fabricated via unique normal-metal layer construction are investigated using current-voltage measurements, x-ray diffraction analysis and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry. Results show that the junctions have an N layer which consists of a gradient Pr:YBCO multilayer configuration. They also show excellent electrical properties above liquid nitrogen temperature.
