Homointerface planar Josephson junction based on inverse proximity effect
Homointerface planar Josephson junction based on inverse proximity effect
The quality of a superconductor–normal metal–superconductor Josephson junction (JJ) depends crucially on the transparency of the superconductor–normal metal (S/N) interface. We demonstrate a technique for fabricating planar JJs with perfect S/N interfaces. The technique utilizes a strong inverse proximity effect discovered in Al/V5S8 bilayers, by which the Al layer is …
