具有共沉积势垒的约瑟夫森隧道结中减小的漏电流
Reduced leakage current in Josephson tunnel junctions with codeposited barriers
摘要:
约瑟夫森结的制作使用两种不同的方法形成的障碍。所采用的三层是蓝宝石上的Nb/Al-AlOx/Nb,其中前两层是外延的。通过将Al表面暴露于O2或通过在O2背景中共沉积Al来形成氧化物阻挡层。共沉积过程中产生的结,表明理论预测的亚间隙电流和没有可测量的分流电导。与此相反,与热氧化形成的障碍的设备显示了一个小的分流电导除了预测的子间隙电流。
英文摘要:
Josephson junctions were fabricated using two different methods of barrier formation. The trilayers employed were Nb/Al-AlOx/Nb on sapphire, where the first two layers were epitaxial. The oxide barrier was formed either by exposing the Al surface to O2 or by codepositing Al in an O2 background. The codeposition process yielded junctions that showed the theoretically predicted subgap current and no measurable shunt conductance. In contrast, devices with barriers formed by thermal oxidation showed a small shunt conductance in addition to the predicted subgap current.
