Abstract
Using Low Temperature Scanning Electron Microscopy we have two-dimensionally imaged single transverse flux quanta trapped in Josephson tunnel junctions. The force of individual pinning sites has been measured by observing the escape of the flux quanta from the pinning center under the influence of an applied Lorentz force. The spatial distribution of the maximum DC-Josephson current for the case of trapped flux quanta has also been calculated using a novel iteration technique and was found in excellent agreement with our experimental observations.
