Controlling the Critical Current in Ferromagnetic Josephson-Junctions by Magnetization and Microwave Irradiation — •Lukas Kammermeier, Andreas Bloch, Oliver Irtenkauf, and Elke Scheer — Universität Konstanz, Konstanz, Germany

A key building block in superconducting spintronics is a controllable superconducting device that accomodates long-ranged triplet currents [1]. It has been suggested to create long range triplets with the help of ferromagnetic resonance in superconductor-ferromagnet-superconductor (SFS) structures made of conventional s-wave superconductors [2]. Here we explore this possibility by studying the electronic transport in SFS junctions in different geometries and realizations of the F spacer, subject to microwave irradiation, with spin injection and as function of the magnetization state of the ferromagnet. We show that we can manipulate the critical current of overdamped S-S/F-S proximity junctions by several percent by flipping a single domain in the ferromagnet. First results on spin injection will be presented.
