超导纳米线中的Weber阻塞

Weber blockade in superconducting nanowires

Tyler Morgan-Wall, Benjamin Leith, Nikolaus Hartman, Atikur Rahman, Nina Markovic

摘要:

我们测量了短而窄的超导铝纳米线的临界电流与磁场的关系。在磁场的范围内,涡旋可以进入纳米线在一个单一的行,我们发现有规律的振荡的临界电流作为磁场的函数。发现振荡对应于向纳米线添加单个涡旋,纳米线上的涡旋数量在振荡的每个周期内保持恒定。这种效应可以被认为是韦伯阻塞,纳米线充当涡旋的量子点,类似于量子点中电子的库仑阻塞。

英文摘要:

We have measured the critical current as a function of magnetic field in short and narrow superconducting aluminum nanowires. In the range of magnetic fields in which vortices can enter a nanowire in a single row, we find regular oscillations of the critical current as a function of magnetic field. The oscillations are found to correspond to adding a single vortex to the nanowire, with the number of vortices on the nanowire staying constant within each period of the oscillation. This effect can be thought of as a Weber blockade, and the nanowires act as quantum dots for vortices, analogous to the Coulomb blockade for electrons in quantum dots.
