We report on electrical resistance measurements of an individual carbon nanotube down to a temperature T=20 mK. The conductance exhibits a ln T dependence and saturates at low temperature. A magnetic field applied perpendicular to the tube…
A hybrid ferromagnet-superconductor spin valve is proposed. Its operation relies on the interplay between nonequilibrium transport and proximity-induced exchange coupling in superconductors. Huge tunnel magnetoresistance values as large as…
We have performed four-probe electrical transport measurements on solitary highly crystalline wires of semimetallic bismuth with aspect ratios up to 60 at room and at cryogenic temperatures. By proper choice of the substrate material and…
We report on the fabrication and electrical transport properties of superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) made from a (Bi_{1-x}Sb_x)_2Se_3 topological insulator (TI) nanoribbon (NR) connected with Pb0.5In0.5 superconducting…
We report evidence for multiband transport and an insulating low-temperature normal state in superconducting K$_{0.50}$Na$_{0.24}$Fe$_{1.52}$Se$_{2}$ with $T_{c}\approx 20$ K. The temperature-dependent upper critical field, $H_{c2}$, is…
We present the first study of superconducting nanowires shunted with an external resistor, geared towards understanding and controlling coherence and dissipation in nanowires. The dynamics is probed by measuring the evolution of the V-I…
The magnetic properties of $\alpha$-NaFeO$_2$ are studied by neutron diffraction and magnetization measurements. An ordered phase with spins aligned along the b$_hex$ axis exists at low temperatures (T < 4 K). At intermediate temperatures…
Nanoscale superconductor-semiconductor hybrid devices are assembled from InAs semiconductor nanowires individually contacted by aluminum-based superconductor electrodes. Below 1 K, the high transparency of the contacts gives rise to…
We characterize niobium nitride (NbN) $\lambda/2$ coplanar waveguide resonators, which were fabricated from a 10nm thick film on silicon dioxide grown by sputter deposition. For films grown at 120{\deg}C we report a superconducting critical…
We report transport measurements down to T=60mK of SININ and SNIN structures in the diffusive limit. We fabricated Al-AlOx/Cu/AlOx/Cu (SININ) and Al/Cu/AlOx/Cu (SNIN) vertical junctions. For the first time, a zero bias anomaly was observed…
We investigate heat and charge transport through a diffusive SIF1F2N tunnel junction, where N (S) is a normal (superconducting) electrode, I is an insulator layer and F1,2 are two ferromagnets with arbitrary direction of magnetization. The…
We report on the experimental study of electron transport in sub-micron-wide ''wires'' fabricated from Si $\delta $-doped GaAs. These quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) conductors demonstrate the crossover from weak to strong localization with…
In this letter we report electrical transport measurements on nickel nanowires of diameters down to 20 nm in the region close to its paramagnetic-ferromagnetic transition temperature T_C (reduced temperature|t| less than or equal to 0.001).…
We evaluate the performance of hybrid microwave resonators made by combining sputtered Nb thin films with Tungsten nanowires grown with a He-beam induced deposition technique. Depending on growth conditions the nanowires have a typical…
We propose an analytical model devoted to explain the anisotropy of the electrical resistance observed below the critical temperature in granular high-Tc superconductors submitted to a magnetic field H. Reported experimental results…
In the search for new physical properties of S/F structures, we have found that the superconductor critical current can be controlled by the domain state of the neighboring ferromagnet. The superconductor is a thin wire of thickness d_{s} ~…
We investigated, at temperature $4.2\,\mathrm{K}$, electric transport, flux noise and resulting spin sensitivity of miniaturized Nb direct current superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) based on submicron Josephson junctions…
Conductors made of high-temperature (HTS) wires helically wound in one or more layers on round tubes (CORT) are compact, flexible, and can carry a large amount of current. Although these conductors were initially developed for DC…
Low-frequency resistance fluctuations cause excess noise in biased resistors. The magnitude of these fluctuations varies significantly between different resistor types. In this work measurements of excess noise in precision thin film and…
Half-quantum vortices in spin-triplet superconductors are predicted to host Majorana zero modes and may provide a viable platform for topological quantum computation. Recent works also suggested that, in thin mesoscopic rings, the…
