Tunable-inductance thin-layered superconductor components, method for the production thereof an devices including said components

An electronic device including a superconductive inductive component comprising at least two terminals cooperating with a stack of thin layers of alternately an electrically insulating material and a superconductive material, and further includes tuning means producing a resistive connection between at least two of said superconductive layers.

A method for the production of a superconductive inductive component with a determined inductance value, comprising:

• a phase of depositing a stack of alternately superconductive and insulating thin layers on a substrate, followed by a phase of depositing on all or part of the section of the stack at least one tuning layer with a material which produces between a plurality of said superconductive layers an electrical connection with a determined resistance, selected according to said inductance value.

A method for the production of a superconductive inductive component having controllable inductance characteristics, comprising:

• a phase of depositing a stack of alternately superconductive and insulating thin layers on a substrate, followed by a phase of depositing on all or part of the section of the stack at least one tuning layer, producing between a plurality of said superconductive layers an electrical connection with a resistance varying as a function of a physical or chemical variable of the environment of said tuning layer.
