We consider the ferromagnetic superconductor （FS） in three different Cooper pairing states： spin singlet s-wave pairing （SWP） state, spin triplet opposite spin pairing （OSP） state, and spin triplet equal spin pairing （ESP） state. We find that the critical Josephson current as a function of z shows clear differences among the SWP, OSP, and ESP states. The obtained results can be used as a useful tool for determining the pair symmetry of the ferromagnetic superconductors.展开更多
