Recent advances in the technology of ultrasmall Josephson junctions focus interest on the scaling characteristics of these devices. We examine the size dependence of the pair current, the rms noise current as well as the voltage fluctuations of ultrasmall junctions, and find novel scaling behavior. Among other things, the low-temperature zero voltage, dc pair current depends on the cube of the junction area.
