Destroying superconductivity in thin films with an electric field
Andrea Amoretti, Daniel K. Brattan, Nicodemo Magnoli +3
In this paper we use a Ginzburg-Landau approach to show that a suitably strong electric field can drive a phase transition from a superconductor to a normal metal. The transition i…
Electrically Tunable Superconductivity Through Surface Orbital Polarization
Maria Teresa Mercaldo, Paolo Solinas, Francesco Giazotto +1
We investigate the physical mechanisms for achieving an electrical control of conventional spin-singlet superconductivity in thin films by focusing on the role of surface orbital p…
Josephson-Threshold Calorimeter
Claudio Guarcello, Alessandro Braggio, Paolo Solinas +2
We suggest a single-photon thermal detector based on the abrupt jump of the critical current of a temperature-biased tunnel Josephson junction formed by different superconductors,…
Magnetotransport Experiments on Fully Metallic Superconducting Dayem Bridge Field-Effect Transistors
Federico Paolucci, Giorgio De Simoni, Paolo Solinas +5
In the last 60 years conventional solid and electrolyte gating allowed sizable modulations of the surface carrier concentration in metallic superconductors resulting in tuning thei…
Proximity SQUID single photon detector via temperature-to-voltage conversion
P. Solinas, F. Giazotto, G. P. Pepe
We propose a single photon detector based on a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) with superconductor-normal metal-superconductor Josephson weak links. One of the…
Josephson thermal memory
Claudio Guarcello, Paolo Solinas, Alessandro Braggio +2
We propose a superconducting thermal memory device that exploits the thermal hysteresis in a flux-controlled, temperature-biased superconducting quantum-interference device (SQUID)…
