The article reviews the significant progress in the development and application of Josephson junctions containing ferromagnetic materials over the past two decades. These junctions, which can oscillate between 0 and π phase differences across the ferromagnetic layer, have been proposed for use in digital superconducting logic and quantum computing qubit designs. The review focuses on metallic ferromagnets due to their potential for industrial applications and includes a detailed discussion of the physical mechanisms, experimental signatures, and theoretical predictions. It also covers the dependence of critical current on applied magnetic fields and the challenges and future directions in this field. The article highlights the importance of careful material selection to balance magnetic properties and supercurrent propagation, and provides a comprehensive list of magnetic materials used in Josephson junctions, along with their key parameters and experimental results.The article reviews the significant progress in the development and application of Josephson junctions containing ferromagnetic materials over the past two decades.
