AI总结:

本文通过基于3D拓扑绝缘体Bi₂Te₂Se的混合约瑟夫森结实验,揭示了非对称直流SQUID测量电流-相位关系的局限性,指出测量准确性取决于CPR导数的不对称性而非临界电流,并为准确测量提供了新思路。

摘要:

约瑟夫森结(JJs)中建立的奇异量子输运现象表现为非正弦电流-相位关系(CPR)。通过带有高临界电流参考JJ的非对称直流SQUID来测量CPR是一种已经固化的方法。我们通过测量基于3D拓扑绝缘体(TI)Bi₂Te₂Se的混合JJs的CPR来检验该方法,其中以纳米桥作为参考JJ。我们在单个器件中同时捕获到高度偏斜和正弦的临界电流振荡,这与CPR的唯一性相矛盾。这意味着这种广泛使用的方法提供了不准确的CPR测量并导致误解。研究表明,CPR测量的准确性是由CPR导数的不对称性所介导的,而不是像以前认为的那样由临界电流的不对称性所介导。我们为准确的CPR测量提供了考虑因素,以鼓励未来使用不同于以往所用参考CPR的实验。

英文摘要:

Exotic quantum transport phenomena established in Josephson junctions (JJs) are reflected by a non-sinusoidal current-phase relation (CPR). The solidified approach to measure the CPR is via an asymmetric dc-SQUID with a reference JJ that has a high critical current. We probed this method by measuring CPRs of hybrid JJs based on a 3D topological insulator (TI) Bi$_2$Te$_2$Se with a nanobridge acting as a reference JJ. We captured both highly skewed and sinusoidal critical current oscillations within single devices which contradicts the uniqueness of the CPR. This implies that the widely used method provides inaccurate CPR measurement and leads to misinterpretation. It was shown that the accuracy of the CPR measurement is mediated by the asymmetry in derivatives of the CPRs but not in critical currents as was previously thought. We provided considerations for an accurate CPR measurement that encourage future experiments with reference CPRs different from those that were used before.
