Granular aluminium oxide (AlOx) nano-wires are a promising alternative to Josephson tunnel junctions as a non-linear element in superconducting quantum circuits. Due to the internal structure, the sheet resistance of this material can be adjusted over a wide kOhm range [1].
Due to the high flexibility of this approach, we employ an electron beam lithography nano-fabrication process, with the intention of being used for highly coherent superconducting quantum circuits. The fabricated 20 nm wide nano-wires have a very clean interface to the sapphire substrate and no remaining fabrication residue in the vicinity of the circuit.
Experimentally, we explore the phase transition from superconducting to insulating behavior in nano-wires with a length span between 50 nm and 1 µm.
