Thickness scaling of ferroelectricity in AlScN is a determining factor for its potential application in neuromorphic computing and memory devices. In this letter, we report on ultrathin (10 nm) Al0.72Sc0.28N films that are ferroelectrically…
Semiconductor-superconductor hybrid systems have outstanding potential for emerging high-performance nanoelectronics and quantum devices. However, critical to their successful application is the fabrication of high-quality and reproducible…
Josephson junctions with ferromagnetic barrier can have positive or negative critical current depending on the thickness $d_F$ of the ferromagnetic layer. Accordingly, the Josephson phase in the ground state is equal to 0 (a conventional or…
Superconducting epitaxial FeSe0.5Te0.5 thin films were prepared on SrTiO3 (001) substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The high purity of the phase, the quality of the growth and the epitaxy were studied with different experimental…
We demonstrate that the supercurrent can be strongly enhanced in cross-like superconducting hybrid nanostructures (X-junctions) exposed to a temperature gradient. At temperatures T exceeding the Thouless energy of our X-junction the…

Demonstrating the topological protection of Andreev states in Josephson junctions is an experimental challenge. In particular the telltale $4\pi$ periodicity expected for the current phase relation of topological Josephson junctions has…
We experimentally investigate charge transport through a single planar junction between a NiTe$_2$ Dirac semimetal and a normal gold lead. At millikelvin temperatures we observe non-Ohmic $dV/dI(V)$ behavior resembling Andreev reflection at…
Magnetic order typically disrupts superconductivity, reducing the supercurrent. Here, we show that chiral antiferromagnetism, with non-relativistic spin-split bands and distinctive valley-locked spin texture, can instead significantly…
