Abstract
It has been shown that the presence of narrowband quantum jumpers in “dirty” (low concentrations of identical nonmagnetic impurities in the insulator (I) layer) S–I–S (S is a superconductor) junctions at the temperature T = 0 significantly reduces the critical supercurrent (Josephson current) as compared to the value given by the known the Ambegaokar–Baratoff relation. The performed estimates have shown the possibility of the experimental manifestation of this effect.
