Edge-Geometry NbN/MgO/NbN Tunnel Junctions

Abstract

Superconductor/insulator/superconductor (SIS) tunnel junctions fabricated with base and counter electrodes of NbN separated by thin layers of MgO. Useful as submillimeter-wave mixers and fast switches. Use of edge geometry to define small junction makes possible to fabricate junction by process including conventional photolithography.
