Superconducting nanowire quantum interference device based on Nb ultrathin films deposited on self-assembled porous Si templates

C. Cirillo, S. L. Prischepa, M. Trezza +2

Magnetoresistance oscillations were observed on networks of superconducting ultrathin Nb nanowires presenting evidences of either thermal or quantum activated phase slips. The magn…

Superconducting properties of Nb thin films deposited on porous silicon templates

M. Trezza, S. L. Prischepa, C. Cirillo +9

Porous silicon, obtained by electrochemical etching, has been used as a substrate for the growth of nanoperforated Nb thin films. The films, deposited by UHV magnetron sputtering o…
