Electrostatic field-driven supercurrent suppression in ionic-gated metallic Josephson nanotransistors

Federico Paolucci, Francesco Crisà, Giorgio De Simoni +5

Recent experiments have shown the possibility of tuning the transport properties of metallic nanosized superconductors through a gate voltage. These results renewed the longstandin…

Unveiling Mechanisms of Electric Field Effects on Superconductors by Magnetic Field Response

Lennart Bours, Maria Teresa Mercaldo, Mario Cuoco +2

We demonstrate that superconducting aluminium nano-bridges can be driven into a state with complete suppression of the critical supercurrent via electrostatic gating. Probing both…

Manipulating quantum Hall edge channels in graphene through Scanning Gate Microscopy

Lennart Bours, Stefano Guiducci, Alina Mreńca-Kolasińska +3

We show evidence of the backscattering of quantum Hall edge channels in a narrow graphene Hall bar, induced by the gating effect of the conducting tip of a Scanning Gate Microscope…
