The critical current response to an applied out-of-plane magnetic field in a Josephson junction provides insight into the uniformity of its current distribution. In Josephson junctions with semiconducting weak links, the carrier density and, therefore the overall current distribution could be modified electrostatically via metallic gates. Here, we show local control of the current distribution in an epitaxial Al-InAs Josephson junction equipped with five mini-gates. We demonstrate that not only can the junction width be electrostatically defined but also we can locally adjust the current profile to form superconducting quantum interference devices. Our studies show enhanced edge conduction in such long junctions, which can be eliminated by mini-gates to create a uniform current distribution.
We report on the fabrication and measurements of planar mesoscopic Josephson junctions formed by InAs nanowires coupled to superconducting Nb terminals. The use of Si-doped InAs-nanowires with different bulk carrier concentrations allowed to tune the
We study mesoscopic fluctuations and weak localization correction to the supercurrent in Josephson junctions with coherent diffusive electron dynamics in the normal part. Two kinds of junctions are considered: a chaotic dot coupled to superconductors
We demonstrate that perfect conversion between charged supercurrents in superconductors and neutral supercurrents in electron-hole pair condensates is possible via a new Andreev-like scattering mechanism. As a result, when two superconducting circuit
We investigate the transport properties of magnetic Josephson junctions. In order to capture realistic material band structure effects, we develop a numerical method combining density functional theory and Bogoliubov-de Gennes model. We demonstrate t
Majorana zero modes are quasiparticle states localized at the boundaries of topological superconductors that are expected to be ideal building blocks for fault-tolerant quantum computing. Several observations of zero-bias conductance peaks measured i
