Selective-Area-Grown PbTe-Pb Planar Josephson Junctions for Quantum Devices
Selective-Area-Grown PbTe-Pb Planar Josephson Junctions for Quantum Devices
Planar Josephson junctions are predicted to host Majorana zero modes. The material platforms in previous studies are two-dimensional electron gases (InAs, InSb, InAsSb, and HgTe) coupled to a superconductor such as Al or Nb. Here, we introduce a new material platform for planar JJs, the PbTe-Pb hybrid. The semiconductor, PbTe, …
