Résumé
On examine un modèle de jonction Josephson où la barrière qui sépare les supraconducteurs contient un grand nombre de petits orifices (a≤k-1F). On montre que pour cette structure l'effet Josephson se décrit à l'aide de la théorie bien connue développée pour les jonctions tunnels.


Abstract
A model of weak link is considered, where superconductors are separated by the opaque barrier with a great number of small (a ≤ k-1F) transparent apertures in it. The Josephson effect in the structure is shown to be adequately described by the well-known theory first suggested for tunnel junctions.
