Magnetically Induced Switching-Current Jumps in InAs/Al Josephson Junctions
Ofelia Durante, Roberta Citro, Elia Strambini +8
We report Barkhausen-like switching at millitesla fields in an -doped InAs/Al nanowire Josephson junction, which serves as an interferometric probe of intrinsic magnetic reconfi…
Gate-controlled Suspended Titanium Nanobridge Supercurrent Transistor
M. Rocci, G. De Simoni, C. Puglia +5
In a family of experiments carried on all-metallic supercurrent nano-transistors a surprising gating effect has been recently shown. These include the full suppression of the criti…
Investigation of InAs based devices for topological applications
Matteo Carrega, Stefano Guiducci, Andrea Iorio +10
Hybrid superconductor/semiconductor devices constitute a powerful platform to investigate the emergence of new topological state of matter. Among all possible semiconductor materia…
Strategy for accurate thermal biasing at the nanoscale
Artem Denisov, Evgeny Tikhonov, Stanislau Piatrusha +6
We analyze the benefits and shortcomings of a thermal control in nanoscale electronic conductors by means of the contact heating scheme. Ideally, this straightforward approach allo…
Vectorial control of the spin-orbit interaction in suspended InAs nanowires
Andrea Iorio, Mirko Rocci, Lennart Bours +6
Semiconductor nanowires featuring strong spin-orbit interactions (SOI), represent a promising platform for a broad range of novel technologies, such as spintronic applications or t…
InAs nanowire superconducting tunnel junctions: spectroscopy, thermometry and nanorefrigeration
Jaakko Mastomäki, Stefano Roddaro, Mirko Rocci +8
We demonstrate an original method -- based on controlled oxidation -- to create high-quality tunnel junctions between superconducting Al reservoirs and InAs semiconductor nanowires…
Local noise in a diffusive conductor
E. S. Tikhonov, D. V. Shovkun, D. Ercolani +5
The control and measurement of local non-equilibrium configurations is of utmost importance in applications on energy harvesting, thermoelectrics and heat management in nano-electr…
Noise thermometry applied to thermoelectric measurements in InAs nanowires
E. S. Tikhonov, D. V. Shovkun, V. S. Khrapai +5
We apply noise thermometry to characterize charge and thermoelectric transport in single InAs nanowires (NWs) at a bath temperature of 4.2 K. Shot noise measurements identify elast…
