Nonlocal supercurrent was observed in mesoscopic planar SNS Josephson junction with additional normal metal electrodes when nonequilibrium quasiparticles were injected from the normal metal electrode in one of the superconducting banks of…
We present an extensive experimental and theoretical study of the proximity effect in InAs nanowires connected to superconducting electrodes. We fabricate and investigate devices with suspended gate-controlled nanowires and nonsuspended…
We measured unusual critical currents as functions of temperature in the zero field and as functions of a magnetic field perpendicular to the substrate surface at a given temperature close to the critical temperature in thin-film long…
The dc Josephson current across a multi-channel SNS junction is computed by summing contributions from sub-gap Andreev bound states, as well as from continuum states propagating within the superconducting leads. We show that, in a long…
We report the results of several nonequilibrium experiments performed on superconducting/normal/superconducting (S/N/S) Josephson junctions containing either one or two extra terminals that connect to normal reservoirs. Currents injected…
We present an experimental study of the magnetic flux dependence of the critical current of a balanced SQUID with three Josephson junctions in parallel. Unlike for ordinary dc SQUIDs, the suppression of the critical current does not depend…
Made of a thin non-superconducting metal (N) sandwiched by two superconductors (S), SNS Josephson junctions enable novel quantum functionalities by mixing up the intrinsic electronic properties of N with the superconducting correlations…
We discuss the dependence of the Josephson current correlations in mesoscopic superconductor/normal-conductor/superconductor (SNS) devices on the transparency of the superconductor/normal-conductor (SN) interfaces. Focusing on short…
Non-reciprocity in the critical current has been observed in a variety of superconducting systems and has been called the superconducting diode effect. The origin underlying the effect depends on the symmetry breaking mechanisms at play. We…
Using tunneling spectroscopy, we have measured the local electron energy distribution function in the normal part of a superconductor-normal metal-superconductor (SNS) Josephson junction containing an extra lead to a normal reservoir. In…
Micron-sized superconducting interference devices ($\mu$-SQUIDs) based on constrictions optimized for minimizing thermal runaway are shown to exhibit voltage oscillations with applied magnetic flux despite their hysteretic behavior. We…
We report the fabrication of strongly coupled nanohybrid superconducting junctions using PbS semiconductor nanowires and Pb0.5In0.5 superconducting electrodes. The maximum supercurrent in the junction reaches up to ~15 \mu A at 0.3 K, which…
The Josephson Effect and Superconducting Proximity Effect were observed in Superconductor -Graphene-Superconductor (SGS) Josephson junctions with coherence lengths comparable to the distance between the superconducting leads. By comparing…
We have probed the switching dynamics of the Josephson critical current of a superconducting weak link by measuring its voltage/current characteristics while applying an ac current bias in the range 1-200 MHz. The weak link between two Nb…
The dc Josephson current through a long SNS junction receives contributions from both Andreev bound states localized in the normal region as well as from scattering states incoming from the superconducting leads. We show that in the limit…
Within the RSJ model we performed an analytical and numerical investigation of SQUID cells consisting of two Josephson junctions shunted by an extremely small inductance leading to strong coupling of the elements. Contrary to the well-known…
We present the results of low-temperature transport measurements on chains of superconductor--normal-constriction--superconductor (SNS) junctions fabricated on the basis of superconducting PtSi film. A comparative study of the properties of…
We use microwave excitation to elucidate the dynamics of long superconductor / normal metal / superconductor Josephson junctions. By varying the excitation frequency in the range 10 MHz - 40 GHz, we observe that the critical and retrapping…
We investigate the Josephson critical current $I_c(\Phi)$ of a wide superconductor-normal metal-superconductor (SNS) junction as a function of the magnetic flux $\Phi$ threading it. Electronic trajectories reflected from the side edges…
We study the stochastic nature of switching current in hysteretic current-voltage characteristics of superconductor-graphene-superconductor (SGS) junctions. We find that the dispersion of the switching current distribution scales with…
