e report measurements of long ranged supercurrents through ferromagnetic and fully spin-polarized CrO$_2$ deposited on TiO$_2$ substrates. In earlier work, we found supercurrents in films grown on sapphire but not on TiO$_2$. Here we…

Ferromagnets can sustain supercurrents through the formation of equal spin triplet Cooper pairs and the mechanism of odd-frequency pairing. Since such pairs are not broken by the exchange energy of the ferromagnet, superconducting triplet…

We report on the observation of a supercurrent through the half metallic ferromagnet CrO$_2$ grown on hexagonal Al$_2$O$_3$ (sapphire). The current was observed to flow over a distance of 700 nm between two superconducting amorphous…

In general, conventional superconductivity should not occur in a ferromagnet, though it has been seen in iron under pressure. Moreover, theory predicts that the current is always carried by pairs of electrons in a spin singlet state, so…

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…

Since the discovery of the long-range superconducting proximity effect, the interaction between spin-triplet Cooper pairs and magnetic structures such as domain walls and vortices has been the subject of intense theoretical discussions,…

In this work, we briefly overview various options for Josephson junctions which should be scalable down to nanometer range for utilization in nanoscale digital superconducting technology. Such junctions should possess high values of…

One-dimensional Cr2NO2 nanoribbons cutting from the oxygen-passivated Cr2NO2 MXene are investigated by using density functional theory. The wide nanoribbons have ferromagnetic ground states and are half-metals, independent of their…

Many proposals in exploring topological quantum computation are based on superconducting quantum devices constructed on materials with strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC). For these devices, a full control on both the magnitude and the spatial…

We report transport studies of hybrid Josephson junctions based on semiconducting InAs nanowires with fully overlapping epitaxial ferromagnetic insulator EuS and superconducting Al partial shells. Current-biased measurements reveal a…

Based on the different covalent versus ionic chemical bonding and isoelectronic rutile CrO2, CrNF is proposed starting from ordered rutile derivative structures subjected to full geometry optimizations. The ground state structure defined…

Superconducting junctions with a ferromagnet as the weak link, where triplet correlations can transport supercurrents over a substantial distance, have been of long-standing interest. In this work, we study the triplet transport in planar…

We report on the fabrication and measurements of a superconducting junction of a single-crystalline Au nanowire, connected to Al electrodes. Current-Voltage characteristic curve shows clear supercurrent branch below the superconducting…

Chromium dioxide CrO$_2$ belongs to a class of materials called ferromagnetic half-metals, whose peculiar aspect is to act as a metal in one spin orientation and as semiconductor or insulator in the opposite one. Despite numerous…

Sr2Cr3As2O2 is composed of alternating square-lattice CrO2 and Cr2As2 stacking layers, where CrO2 is isostructural to the CuO2 building-block of cuprate high-Tc superconductors and Cr2As2 to Fe2As2 of Fe-based superconductors. Current…

In existing superconducting electronic systems, Josephson junctions play a central role in processing and transmitting small-amplitude electrical signals. However, Josephson-junction-based devices have a number of limitations including: (1)…

Interfaces between materials with differently ordered phases present unique opportunities to study fundamental problems in physics. One example is the interface between a singlet superconductor and a half-metallic ferromagnet, where Cooper…

We have measured a long-range supercurrent in Josephson junctions containing Co (a strong ferromagnetic material) when we insert thin layers of either PdNi or CuNi weakly-ferromagnetic alloys between the Co and the two superconducting Nb…
