In 1D SF1F2S Josephson junctions, a barrier at the F1/F2 interface creates critical-current resonance peaks at Q_i d_i = (n_i + 1/2)π, attributed to zero-spin-projection triplet pairs, with accumulated phase setting the 0 or π ground state.

abstract
We calculate the dc Josephson current for two superconductor-ferromagnet (S/F) bilayers separated by a thin insulating film. It is demonstrated that the critical Josephson current $I_{c}$ in the junction strongly depends on the relative orientation of the effective exchange field $h$ of the bilayers. We found that in the case of an antiparallel orientation, $I_{c}$ increases at low temperatures with increasing $h$ and at zero temperature has a singularity when $h$ equals the superconducting gap $\Delta $. This striking behavior contrasts suppression of the critical current by the magnetic moments aligned in parallel and is an interesting new effect of the interplay between superconductors and ferromagnets.

Quantized resonant tunneling effect in Josephson junctions with ferromagnetic bilayers
In 1D SF1F2S Josephson junctions, a barrier at the F1/F2 interface creates critical-current resonance peaks at Q_i d_i = (n_i + 1/2)π, attributed to zero-spin-projection triplet pairs, with accumulated phase setting the 0 or π ground state.
