Critical behavior at the dynamic Mott transition

Nicola Poccia, Tatyana I. Baturina, Francesco Coneri +7

We investigate magnetoresistance of a square array of superconducting islands placed on a normal metal, which offers a unique tunable laboratory for realizing and exploring quantum…

Geometric dependence of Nb-BiTe-Nb topological Josephson junction transport parameters

C. G. Molenaar, D. P. Leusink, X. L. Wang +1

Superconductor-topological insulator-superconductor Josephson junctions have been fabricated in order to study the width dependence of the critical current, normal state resistance…

Josephson supercurrent in a topological insulator without a bulk shunt

M. Snelder, C. G. Molenaar, Y. Pan +8

A Josephson supercurrent has been induced into the three-dimensional topological insulator Bi1.5Sb0.5Te1.7Se1.3. We show that the transport in Bi1.5Sb0.5Te1.7Se1.3 exfoliated flake…

Magnetotransport and induced superconductivity in Bi based three-dimensional topological insulators

M. Veldhorst, M. Snelder, M. Hoek +5

The surface of a 3D topological insulator is conducting and the topologically nontrivial nature of the surface states is observed in experiments. It is the aim of this paper to rev…

Optimizing the Majorana character of SQUIDs with topologically non-trivial barriers

M. Veldhorst, C. G. Molenaar, C. J. M. Verwijs +2

We have modeled SQUIDs with topologically non-trivial superconducting junctions and performed an optimization study on the Majorana fermion detection. We find that the SQUID parame…

Experimental realization of SQUIDs with topological insulator junctions

M. Veldhorst, C. G. Molenaar, X. L. Wang +2

We demonstrate topological insulator (BiTe) dc SQUIDs, based on superconducting Nb leads coupled to nano-fabricated Nb-BiTe-Nb Josephson junctions. The high reprodu…

Vortex trapping and expulsion in thin-film YBCO strips

K. H. Kuit, J. R. Kirtley, W. van der Veur +7

A scanning SQUID microscope was used to image vortex trapping as a function of the magnetic induction during cooling in thin-film YBCO strips for strip widths W from 2 to 50 um. We…
