Abstract :
A forward bias Josephson fluxonic diode exhibits a linear I-V curve whose slope is a function of the Stewart-McCumber loss parameter β, the length of the junction, critical current density and the magnitude of the applied control current. This linear I-V curve lacks resonance structure and does not exhibit a flux flow step. A modeling which matches experimental results is presented.
