1-dimensional topological insulator nanoribbons in close proximity to elemental superconductors can be utilized to create localized Majorana modes for topological quantum computation architectures. We employ a selective area growth method using molecular beam epitaxy in order to define topological insulator nanodevices without harmful post processing steps. Using the transmission line method the interface of Bi2Te3 nanorribons towards ex situ applied Ti/Au contacts is probed at low temperatures. Furthermore, magnetotransport measurements on nano-Hallbars of down to 50 nm wide Bi2Te3 nanoribbons show indications of highly mobile charge carriers originating from 2-dimensional, topological surfaces. Finally, making use of a stencil mask on-chip, elemental superconductors like Nb and Al are deposited to define in situ, lateral topological Josephson junctions. Superconducting properties of proximitized topological nanoribbons are presented and discussed.
