Supercurrent through a single transverse mode in nanowire Josephson junctions
B. Zhang, Z. Li, H. Wu +6
Hybrid superconductor-semiconductor materials are fueling research in mesoscopic physics and quantum technology. Recently demonstrated smooth -Sn superconductor shells, due to t…
Parity-preserving and magnetic field resilient superconductivity in indium antimonide nanowires with tin shells
M. Pendharkar, B. Zhang, H. Wu +14
We study bottom-up grown semiconductor indium antimonide nanowires that are coated with shells of tin. The shells are uniform in thickness. The interface between Sn and InSb is abr…
Superconductivity enhancement in the S-doped Weyl semimetal candidate MoTe2
F. C. Chen, X. Luo, R. C. Xiao +11
Two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMDs) MoTe2 has attracted much attention due to its predicted Weyl semimetal (WSM) state and a quantum spin Hall insulator in…
Reconfigurable self-sufficient traps for ultracold atoms based on a superconducting square
M. Siercke, K. S. Chan, B. Zhang +3
We report on the trapping of ultracold atoms in the magnetic field formed entirely by persistent supercurrents induced in a thin film type-II superconducting square. The supercurre…
Magnetic confinement of neutral atoms based on patterned vortex distributions in superconducting disks and rings
B. Zhang, M. Siercke, K. S. Chan +3
We propose and analyze neutral atom traps generated by vortices imprinted by magnetic field pulse sequences in type-II superconducting disks and rings. We compute the supercurrent…
Design of magnetic traps for neutral atoms with vortices in type-II superconducting micro-structures
B. Zhang, R. Fermani, T. Mueller +2
We design magnetic traps for atoms based on the average magnetic field of vortices induced in a type-II superconducting thin film. This magnetic field is the critical ingredient of…
