We calculate the critical current density $J^J_c$ for c-axis Josephson tunneling between identical high temperature superconductors twisted an angle $phi_0$ about the c-axis. We model the tunneling matrix element squared as a Gaussian in the change of wavevector q parallel to the junction, $<|t({bf q})|^2>proptoexp(-{bf q}^2a^2/2pi^2sigma^2)$. The $J^J_c(phi_0)/J^J_c(0)$ obtained for the s- and extended-s-wave order parameters (OPs) are consistent with the Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+delta}$ data of Li {it et al.}, but only for strongly incoherent tunneling, $sigma^2ge0.25$. A $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave OP is always inconsistent with the data. In addition, we show that the apparent conventional sum rule violation observed by Basov et al. might be understandable in terms of incoherent c-axis tunneling, provided that the OP is not $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave.

Li et al. found that the critical current density JcJ across atomically clean c-axis twist junctions of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O(8+x) is the same as that of the constituent single crystal, JcS, independent of the twist angle phi0, even at Tc. We investigated the
oretically if a dx2-y2-wave order parameter might twist by mixing in dxy components, but find that such twisting cannot possibly explain the data near to Tc. Hence, the order parameter contains an s-wave component, but not any dx2-y2-wave component. In addition, the c-axis Josephson tunneling is completely incoherent. We also propose a c-axis junction tricrystal experiment which does not rely upon expensive substrates.
We calculate Ic(T) and Rn for both coherent and incoherent electron tunneling across a c-axis break junction between nu=s,d_x^2-y^2-wave superconducting half spaces, each with c-axis bandwidth 2J. Coherent quasiparticle tunneling only occurs for volt
ages V<2J/e, leading to difficulties in measuring Rn for underdoped samples. The coherent part of Ic(0) is independent of Delta_nu(0) for J/Delta_nu(0)<<1, and can be large. Our results are discussed with regard to recent experiments.
With simple but exactly solvable model, we investigate the supercurrent transferring through the c-axis cuprate superconductor-normal metal-superconductor junctions with the clean normal metal much thicker than its coherence length. It is shown that
the supercurrent as a function of thickness of the normal metal decreases much slower than the exponential decaying expected by the proximity effect. The present result may account for the giant proximity effect observed in the c-axis cuprate SNS junctions.
Josephson junctions were photogenerated in underdoped thin films of the YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$ family using a near-field scanning optical microscope. The observation of the Josephson effect for separations as large as 100 nm between two wires indicat
es the existence of an anomalously large proximity effect and show that the underdoped insulating material in the gap of the junction is readily perturbed into the superconducting state. The critical current of the junctions was found to be consistent with the conventional Josephson relationship. This result constrains the applicability of SO(5) theory to explain the phase diagram of high critical temperature superconductors.
The Josephson Plasma Resonance is used to study the c-axis supercurrent in the superconducting state of underdoped Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$CaCu$_{2}$O$_{8+delta}$ with varying degrees of controlled point-like disorder, introduced by high-energy electron irra
diation. As disorder is increased, the Josephson Plasma frequency decreases proportionally to the critical temperature. The temperature dependence of the plasma frequency does not depend on the irradiation dose, and is in quantitative agreement with a model for quantum fluctuations of the superconducting phase in the CuO$_{2}$ layers.
