Proximity effect in PbTe-Pb hybrid nanowire Josephson junctions
Proximity effect in PbTe-Pb hybrid nanowire Josephson junctions
Semiconductor-superconductor hybrid nanowires are a leading material platform for the realization of Majorana zero modes. The semiconductors in previous studies are dominantly InAs or InSb. In this paper, we show the induced superconductivity in PbTe nanowires epitaxially coupled to a superconductor Pb. The Josephson junction devices based on this hybrid …
