Using a high-resolution measuring technique Jackel et al./1/recently found that many superconducting weak links may have markedly non-sinusoidal currentphase relations (CPR). In the case of commonly used point contacts the CPR is expected to be anywhere from sinusoidal to extremely non-sinusoidal with its maximum at phases%/2<'p<%/2/. While most approaches in analyzing weak-link experiments are based on a sinusoidal CPR, experimental results of a rf SQUID system noise analysis for instance show that, for a SQUID ring having a non-sinusoidal CPR the minimum attainable noise is considerably higher than it is for a ring with a sinusoidal relation/3/. Furthermore, such departures from the simple Josephson CPR are expected to have pronounced effects on the operating characteristic of all devices incorporating weak links.
