(color online) (a) Current–voltage characteristics of the sample contained a narrow slit with length (black solid line) and with smaller length (dashed line) in the current increasing regime for . Panels~1–4 shows the inset snapshots of Cooper-pair density indicated in the IV curve. (b) Equilibrated voltage vs time responses of the sample with centered slit of length at , . The insets show the distributions of PSLs at times indicated in the Vt curve.
