Epitaxial Pb on InAs nanowires for quantum devices
نویسندگان
چکیده
Semiconductor-superconductor hybrids are widely used for realising complex quantum phenomena such as topological superconductivity and spins coupled to Cooper pairs. Accessing exotic regimes at high magnetic fields increasing operating temperatures beyond the state-of-the-art requires new, epitaxially matched semiconductor-superconductor materials. The challenge is generate favourable conditions heterostructure formation between materials with desired inherent properties. Here, we harness increased knowledge of metal-on-semiconductor growth develop InAs nanowires matched, single crystal, atomically flat Pb films along entire nanowire. These highly ordered heterostructures have a critical temperature 7 K superconducting gap 1.25 meV, which remains hard 8.5 T, thereby more than doubling available parameter space. Additionally, InAs/Pb island devics exhibit field-driven transitions from pair electron charging; pre-requisite use in computation. Introducing semiconductor-Pb potentially enables access entirely new an array systems.

متن کاملQuantum Hall devices on epitaxial graphene: towards large-scale integration
Quantum Hall devices have been used as the primary standard of electrical resistance for over two decades, and they are unlikely to be replaced in this role any time soon. The work presented in this thesis was being done towards the goal of establishing epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide as a new material of choice for these devices. Experiments on individual devices have already demonstrate...
متن کاملMini array of quantum Hall devices based on epitaxial graphene
Series connection of four quantum Hall effect (QHE) devices based on epitaxial graphene films was studied for realization of a quantum resistance standard with an up-scaled value. The tested devices showed quantum Hall plateaux RH,2 at filling factor ν = 2 starting from relatively low magnetic field (between 4 T and 5 T) when temperature was 1.5 K. Precision measurements of quantized Hall resis...
متن کاملTunable few electron quantum dots in InAs nanowires
Quantum dots realized in InAs are versatile systems to study the effect of spin-orbit interaction on the spin coherence, as well as the possibility to manipulate single spins using an electric field. We present transport measurements on quantum dots realized in InAs nanowires. Lithographically defined top-gates are used to locally deplete the nanowire and to form tunneling barriers. By using th...
