Symmetry of the critical current function in superconducting nanodevices

We study a variety of nano-scale superconducting devices containing more than one weak link. Even in devices with multiple weak links the IB symmetry is usually obeyed, which means that if we reverse both the bias current direction and the magnetic field direction at the same time, the superconducting response, namely the critical current, remains unchanged. We also provide a detailed analysis of the situations in which such symmetry is violated.
