Superconducting triangular Nb wire networks with high normal-state resistance are fabricated by using a negative tone hydrogen silsesquioxane (HSQ) resist. Robust magnetoresistance oscillations are observed up to high magnetic fields and maintained at low temperatures, due to the eective reduction of wire dimensions. Well-defined dips appear at integral and rational values (1/2, 1/3, 1/4) of the reduced flux f = Phi/Phi_0, which is the first observation in the triangular wire networks. These results are well consistent with theoretical calculations for the reduced critical temperature as a function of f.

We study the Hall and Nernst effects across the antiferromagnetic transition that reconstructs the quasi-2D Fermi surface of the metallic local moment antiferromagnet PdCrO$_2$. We show that non- monotonic temperature dependence in the Hall effect an
d a sign change in the Nernst effect above the ordering temperature cannot be understood within a simple single-band transport model. The inclusion of coherent scattering by critical antiferromagnetic fluctuations can qualitatively account for these features in the transport coefficients. We discuss the implications of this for the pseudogap phase of the cuprate superconductors, which have a similar Fermi surface and where the same transport signatures are observed.
We study electron transport in quasi-one-dimensional wires at relatively weak electrostatic confinements, where the Coulomb interaction distorts the ground state, leading to the bifurcation of the electronic system into two rows. Evidence of finite c
oupling between the rows, resulting in bonding and antibonding states, is observed. At high dc source-drain bias, a structure is observed at 0.5(2e^2/h) due to parallel double-row transport, along with a structure at 0.25(2e^2/h), providing further evidence of coupling between the two rows.
Nanoscience offers a unique opportunity to design modern materials from the bottom up, via low-cost, solution processed assembly of nanoscale building blocks. These systems promise electronic band structure engineering using not only the nanoscale st
ructural modulation, but also the mesoscale spatial patterning, although experimental realization of the latter has been challenging. Here we design and fabricate a new type of artificial solid by stacking graphene on a self-assembled, nearly periodic array of nanospheres, and experimentally observe superlattice miniband effects. We find conductance dips at commensurate fillings of charge carriers per superlattice unit cell, which are key features of minibands that are induced by the quasi-periodic deformation of the graphene lattice. These dips become stronger when the lattice strain is larger. Using a tight-binding model, we simulate the effect of lattice deformation as a parameter affecting the inter-atomic hopping integral, and confirm the superlattice transport behavior. This 2D material-nanoparticle heterostructure enables facile band structure engineering via self-assembly, promising for large area electronics and optoelectronics applications.
Measurements of thermal activation are made in a superconducting, niobium Persistent-Current (PC) qubit structure, which has two stable classical states of equal and opposite circulating current. The magnetization signal is read out by ramping the bi
as current of a DC SQUID. This ramping causes time-ordered measurements of the two states, where measurement of one state occurs before the other. This time-ordering results in an effective measurement time, which can be used to probe the thermal activation rate between the two states. Fitting the magnetization signal as a function of temperature and ramp time allows one to estimate a quality factor of 10^6 for our devices, a value favorable for the observation of long quantum coherence times at lower temperatures.
We present a method to measure the absolute surface resistance of conductive samples at a set of GHz frequencies with superconducting lead stripline resonators at temperatures 1- 6K. The stripline structure can easily be applied for bulk samples and
allows direct calculation of the surface resistance without the requirement of additional calibration measurements or sample reference points. We further describe a correction method to reduce experimental background on high-Q resonance modes by exploiting TEM-properties of the external cabling. We then show applications of this method to the reference materials gold, tantalum, and tin, which include the anomalous skin effect and conventional superconductivity. Furthermore, we extract the complex optical conductivity for an all-lead stripline resonator to find a coherence peak and the superconducting gap of lead.
