| Abstract | We consider Josephson vortices at tricrystal boundaries. We discuss the specific case of a tricrystal boundary with a junction as one of the three arms. It is recently shown that the static system admits an (n + 1/2)0 flux, n = 0,1,2 [Phys. Rev. B 61, 9122 (2000)]. Here we present an analysis to calculate the linear stability of the admitted states. In particular, we calculate the stability of a 30/2 flux. This state is of interest, since energetically this state is preferable for some combinations of Josephson lengths, but we show that in general it is linearly unstable. Finally, we propose a system that can have a stable (n + 1/2)0 state. |
