Abstract
We have measured the electric transport properties of TiN nanostrips with different widths. At zero magnetic field, the temperature-dependent resistance R(T) saturates at a finite resistance toward low temperatures, which results from quantum phase slips in the narrower strips. We find that the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the narrowest strips are equivalent to those of small ...
We have measured the electric transport properties of TiN nanostrips with different widths. At zero magnetic field, the temperature-dependent resistance R(T) saturates at a finite resistance toward low temperatures, which results from quantum phase slips in the narrower strips. We find that the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the narrowest strips are equivalent to those of small Josephson junctions. Applying a transverse magnetic field drives the devices into a reentrant insulating phase, with I-V characteristics dual to those in the superconducting regime. The results provide evidence that our critically disordered superconducting nanostrips behave like small self-organized random Josephson networks.
