Abstract
Recent experiments have demonstrated the nonequilibrium control of the supercurrent through diffusive phase-coherent normal-metal weak links. The experimental results have been accurately described by the quasiclassical Green’s-function technique in the Keldysh formalism. Taking into account the geometry of the structure, different energy scales, and the nonidealities at the interfaces allows us to obtain a quantitative agreement between the theory and the experimental results in both the amplitude and the phase dependence of the supercurrent, with no or very few fitting parameters. Here we discuss the most important factors involved with such comparisons: the ratio between the superconducting order parameter and the Thouless energy of the junction, the effect of additional wires on the weak link, and the effects due to imperfections, most notably due to the nonideal interfaces.
