Bringing superconducting nanostructures to 3D
In a new study, an international team led by researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids have created three dimensional superconducting nanostructures using a technique similar to a nano-3D printer. They achieved local control of the superconducting state in a 3D bridge-like superconductor, and could even demonstrate the motion of superconducting vortices – nanoscale defects in the superconducting state – in three dimensions.
