Proximity effect in planar Superconductor/Semiconductor junction
We have measured the very low temperature (down to 30mK) subgap resistance of Titanium Nitride (Superconductor, Tc = 4.6K)/highly doped Silicon (Semiconductor) SIN junction (the insulating layer I stands for the Schottky barrier). As the temperature is lowered below the gap, the resistance increases as expected in SIN junction. Around 300mK, the resistance shows a maximum and decreases at lower...
متن کاملSingle-electron soliton avalanches in tunnel-junction arrays
Numerical modeling of correlated single-electron tunneling in uniform two-dimensional arrays of small conducting islands separated by tunnel junctions shows the possibility of soliton-antisoliton avalanches. Though the time duration of any avalanche and the total charge, DQ5ne , transferred across the array during the avalanche are always finite in arrays with length N larger than certain criti...
متن کاملSuperconducting tunnel junction bolometers
2014 Two new types of superconducting infrared bolometer are described. In one, the temperature dependent Josephson current in an SNS junction is measured with a SQUID galvanometer. In the other, the temperature-dependent quasiparticle tunneling current in an SIN junction is measured with a conventional fet amplifier. Either type of junction is deposited on a low heat capacity sapphire substrat...
متن کاملTime-resolved measurement of the tunnel magneto-Seebeck effect in a single magnetic tunnel junction.
Recently, several groups have reported spin-dependent thermoelectric effects in magnetic tunnel junctions. In this paper, we present a setup for time-resolved measurements of thermovoltages and thermocurrents of a single micro- to nanometer-scaled tunnel junction. An electrically modulated diode laser is used to create a temperature gradient across the tunnel junction layer stack. This laser mo...
متن کاملPrimary tunnel junction thermometry.
We describe the concept and experimental demonstration of primary thermometry based on a four-probe measurement of a single tunnel junction embedded within four arrays of junctions. We show that in this configuration random sample specific and environment-related errors can be avoided. This method relates temperature directly to Boltzmann constant, which will form the basis of the definition of...
