Direct measurements have been made of the current-phase relation (CPR) of photolithographic tin microbridges, scribed indium microbridges, proximity bridges, and point contacts. Hysteretic current-phase relations have been observed in uniform-thickness tin microbridges, while proximity bridges have sinusoidal or nearly sinusoidal current-phase relations. (AIP)
