Abstract
A three-dimensional close-packed array of Josephson junctions was successfully produced in the form of a bulk granular superconductor. The granular system is a tightly compressed solid of oxide coated small tin particles in the thousand A range. The three-dimensional array of Josephson junctions thus formed showed coherent Josephson oscillations when external rf radiation was imposed, rf induced constant voltage steps were observed on its I-V characteristics at voltages a few thousand times the Josephson voltage hv/2e. The external rf radiation also induced Stable dc voltages on unbiased bulk samples, suggesting a practical mode of microwave detection. The analogy of this bulk superconducting system with a magnetic spin system will be discussed.
