Low- or high-angle Ar ion-beam etching to create ramp-type Josephson junctions
The dependence of the ramp geometry on highor low-angle ion-beam etching, used to structure ramp-type Josephson junctions based on ReBa2Cu3O7−δ high-Tc superconductors, is investigated by cross-section transmission electron microscopy. The surface quality, interfaces and crystal defects are analysed by high-resolution electron microscopy. Technical difficulties to reproducibly obtain the desire...
متن کاملMagnetic nanoelements for magnetoelectronics made by focused-ion-beam milling
Focused-ion-beam ~FIB! milling has been used to structure magnetic nanoelements from 5 nm thick films of permalloy. We have used focused 30-keV Ga ions to define small arrays (6 mm 36 mm) of wires, circles, and elongated hexagons in the size range 100–500 nm. High-sensitivity magneto-optical measurements combined with atomic force microscopy show that very high quality magnetic nanostructures c...
متن کاملThin-film YBa2Cu3O72x direct current SQUIDs with Josephson junctions made by direct electron beam writing
We have investigated dc superconducting quantum interference devices ~SQUIDs! with loop areas 8 and 64 mm made by direct electron beam writing in YBa2Cu3O72x films with thickness 25 and 50 nm. The SQUIDs have maximum peak-to-peak voltage modulation of about 20 mV, which corresponds to the transfer factor dV/dF0;50–60 mV/F0 at 30–40 K. By measuring the mutual inductance of the SQUID signal line ...
متن کاملHigh quality YBa2Cu307 Josephson junctions made by direct electron beam writing
High-T, Josephson junctions have been fabricated by direct electron beam writing over YBa,C&O, thin-tilm microbridges, using scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) with an accelerating voltage of W-120 kV. Annealing at 330-380 K increases T, and I, of the junctions and makes them more stable. In the operating range of a few degrees below T,, the junctions show 100% magnetic field modu...
متن کاملThe fabrication of silicon nanostructures by focused-ion-beam implantation and TMAH wet etching.
Local gallium implantation of silicon by a focused ion beam (FIB) has been used to create a mask for anisotropic tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) wet etching. The dependence of the etch stop properties of gallium-doped silicon on the implanted dose has been investigated and a dose of 4 x 10(13) ions cm(- 2) has been determined to be the threshold value for achieving observable etching resis...
