Using a simple model of multi-band superconductors, which can be applied in particular to Fe-based pnictides, we calculate the Josephson current IJ in a tunnel junction composed by such superconductors. We employ the tunneling Hamiltonian method and quasiclassical Green’s functions. We study both the case of coexistence of the superconducting (¢) and magnetic (SDW—spin density wave) order parameters and the case when only the superconducting order parameter exists. We show that the current IJ depends on the mutual orientation of magnetization of the SDW in the case of non-ideal nesting when the coexistence of superconducting and magnetic order parameters is possible as it takes place in Fe-based pnictides. It is foundthat the realization of the π-junction is possible in both cases. We compare our results for multi-band superconductors without the SDW with those obtained earlier and find that they coincide if the tunneling matrixelements arereal.
