Advances in nanofabrication techniques have made it possible to make devices in which
superconducting electrodes are connected to non-superconducting nanostructures such as …

Semiconductor InSb nanowires are expected to provide an excellent material platform for
the study of Majorana fermions in solid state systems. Here, we report on the realization of a …

The physics and operating principles of hybrid superconductor–semiconductor devices rest
ultimately on the magnetic properties of their elementary subgap excitations, usually called …

The epitaxial growth of germanium on silicon leads to the self-assembly of SiGe
nanocrystals by a process that allows the size, composition and position of the nanocrystals …

We have tuned in situ the proximity effect in a single graphene layer coupled to two Pt/Ta
superconducting electrodes. An annealing current through the device changed the …

Single-molecule transistors are currently attracting enormous attention as possible quantum
information processing devices,,,,. An intrinsic limitation to their prospects, however, is …

We demonstrate the Josephson effect in a serial double quantum dot defined in a nanowire
with epitaxial superconducting leads. The supercurrent stability diagram adopts a …

We report on observation of coherent electron transport in suspended high-quality InAs
nanowire-based devices. The InAs nanowires were grown by low-temperature gold-assisted …

The superconducting proximity effect has recently attracted a renewed interest as the basis
of topologically nontrivial states in materials with a large spin–orbit interaction, with …

Magnetotransport measurements at low temperatures have been performed on InAs
nanowires grown by In-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. Information on the electron phase …
