Josephson junctions are a strong tool to investigate fundamental superconducting properties, such as gap behaviour, dependencies from external fields and the order parameter symmetry. Finding secure values enables the possibility of theoretical descriptions to understand the physical processes within the new iron-based superconductors. The superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) symmetry provides a phase-sensitive tool to examine flux behaviour in a very precise.
Based on Co-doped Ba(Fe0.9Co0.1)2As2 (Co:Ba-122) thin films produced via pulsed laser deposition (PLD) on SrTiO3 bicrystal substrates (mismatch angles from 9∘ to 36∘), we manufactured grain boundary junctions by using photolithography and ion beam etching. Based on the grain boundary junctions, SQUID structures can be realized.
We present first measurements on Co:Ba-122 grain boundary Josephson junctions and their temperature dependence.
