Abstract

A complete microelectronics technology based on high-transition temperature superconducting thin films requires two key components: a reproducible Josephson weak link and a multilayer process for interconnects. Although many kinds of weak link have been studied, none is yet satisfactory for circuits involving more than a few elements. On the other hand, a viable interconnect technology has been developed in which two YBa2Cu3O7−x films may be either electrically isolated or connected via a superconducting contact. The junctions and interconnect technology have been used to produce magnetometers involving a flux transformer with a multiturn input coil coupled to a dc Superconducting QUantum Interference Device.
