Vertical josephson junction superconducting device

Abstract

Techniques for a vertical Josephson junction superconducting device are provided. In one embodiment, a chip surface base device structure is provided that comprises a substrate comprising crystalline silicon that is coupled with a first superconducting layer, wherein the first superconducting layer is coupled with a second substrate comprising crystalline silicon. In one implementation, the chip surface base device structure also comprises a vertical Josephson junction located in an etched region of the substrate, the vertical Josephson junction comprising a first superconducting layer, a tunnel barrier layer, and a top superconducting layer.
