Preparation of hybrid Josephson junctions on Co-doped Ba-122 single crystals

In this paper we present a method for processing a hybrid Josephson junction on Co-doped BaFe2As2(Ba-122) single crystals with a thin film Pb-counter electrode and a barrier layer of TiOx. This includes the leveling and polishing of the crystals and structuring them with thin film techniques such as photo lithography, sputtering and ion beam etching (IBE). The junctions show hysteretical resistively and capacitively shunted junction (RCSJ)-like I-V characteristics with an IcRn-product of about 800uV.

Influenced of Fe buffer thickness on the crystalline quality and the transport properties of Fe/Ba(Fe1-xCox)2As2 bilayers

The implementation of an Fe buffer layer is a promising way to obtain epitaxial growth of Co-doped BaFe2As2 (Ba-122). However, the crystalline quality and the superconducting properties of Co-doped Ba-122 are influenced by the Fe buffer layer thickness, dFe. The well-textured growth of the Fe/Ba-122 bilayer with dFe = 15 nm results in a high Jc of 0.45 MAcm$^{-2}$ at 12 K in self-field, whereas a low Jc value of 61000 Acm$^{-2}$ is recorded for the bilayer with dFe = 4 nm at the corresponding reduced temperature due to the presence of grain boundaries.
