The Josephson effect in superconductor / diffusive ferromagnet / superconductor (SFS) junctions is studied using the recursive Green function method in the regime of large exchange energy in a ferromagnet. Motivated by recent experiment [R. S. Keizer, et. al., Nature 439, 825 (2006)] we also address the case of superconductor / diffusive half metal / superconductor junctions. The pairing function in spin-singlet and triplet channels, the Josephson current and their mesoscopic fluctuations are calculated. We show that the spin-flip scattering at the junction interfaces opens the Josephson channel of the odd-frequency spin-triplet Cooper pairs. As a consequence, the local density of states in half metals has a large peak at the Fermi energy. Therefore odd-frequency pairs can be detected experimentally by using the scanning tunneling spectroscopy.

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 t...
