Abstract

The influence of fluctuations on microwave-induced Josephson steps is treated phenomenologically and it is found that the center voltage of these steps is not shifted by the disturbance. Expressions governing the step shape are obtained for various noise spectra. The theory was checked by subjecting niobium point-contact junctions to several forms of externally generated noise. The theory does not differentiate between internal and external noise sources, so that a number of the conclusions can be extended to intrinsic fluctuations.
