We report the experimental discovery of superconductivity with critical temperature Tc above 70 K in zirconium polyhydrides, the record high so far for 3d transition metal hydrides. The superconducting zirconium polyhydrides are synthesized…
Superconducting boron doped silicon is a promising material for integrated silicon quantum devices. In particular, its low electronic density and moderate disorder make it a suitable candidate for the fabrication of large inductances with…
We have integrated on oxidized silicon wafers superconductive films and Josephson junctions along with sol-gel optical channel waveguides. The fabrication process is carried out in two steps that result to be solid and non-invasive. It is…
The presented results are part of a feasibility study of superheated superconducting microstructure detectors. The microstructures (dots) were fabricated using thin film patterning techniques with diameters ranging from $50\mu$m up to…
We performed phase-sensitive terahertz (0.12 - 1.2 THz) transmission measurements of Ga-enriched layers in silicon. Below the superconducting transition, T_{c} = 6.7 K, we find clear signatures of the formation of a superconducting…
Gallium metallic photonic crystals with 100% filling factor have been fabricated via infiltration of liquid gallium into opals of 300-nm silica spheres using a novel high pressure-high temperature technique. The electrical resistance of the…
Millimetre-wave observations represent an important tool for Cosmology studies. The Line Intensity Mapping (LIM) technique has been proposed to map in three dimensions the specific intensity due to line (e.g. [CII], CO) emission, for…
We investigate superconducting gallium in its $\alpha$ phase using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy at temperatures down to about 100 mK. High-resolution tunneling spectroscopies using both superconducting and normal tips show…
Superconductivity with transition temperature Tc above 40 K was observed in protonated FeSe (Hy-FeSe) previously with the ionic liquid of EMIM-BF4 used in the electrochemical process. However, the real superconducting phase is not clear…
Nanoimprint lithography (NIL) is an attractive nonconventional lithographic technique in the fabrication of superconducting nanowires for superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) with large effective detection areas or…
We have discovered that samples of a new material produced by special processing of crystals of Sr2RuO4 (which is known to be a triplet superconductor with Tc values ~1.0-1.5K) exhibit signatures of superconductivity (zero DC resistance and…
Making use of focused Ga-ion beam (FIB) fabrication technology, the evolution with device dimension of the low-temperature electrical properties of Nb nanowires has been examined in a regime where crossover from Josephson-like to insulating…
Herein, we report CeIrIn5 thin-film growth on a MgF2 (001) substrate using pulsed laser deposition technique. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the thin films were either mainly a-axis-oriented (TF1) or a combination of a- and…
We report nanoscale patterning of graphene using a helium ion microscope configured for lithography. Helium ion lithography is a direct-write lithography process, comparable to conventional focused ion beam patterning, with no resist or…
In this work, we show the feasibility of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) patterning on an HF-treated Si(100) surface in the absence of a photoresist. EUV lithography is the leading lithography technique in semiconductor manufacturing due to its…
We present direct imaging measurements of charge transport across a 1 cm x 1 cm x 4 mm-thick crystal of high purity silicon ($\sim$15 k$\Omega$-cm) at temperatures of 5 K and 500 mK. We use these data to measure the lateral diffusion of…
High transition temperature (high-Tc) superconductivity is associated with layered crystal structures. This work considers superconductivity in ultra-thin crystals (of thickness equal to the transverse structural periodicity distance d for…
