AbstractWe report a new scheme for fabrication of clean, suspended superconducting weak links from pristine single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT). The SWCNTs were grown using the floating-catalyst chemical vapour deposition (FC-CVD) and directly deposited on top of prefabricated superconducting molybdenum-rhenium (MoRe) electrodes by thermophoresis at nearly ambient conditions. Transparent contacts to SWCNTs were obtained by vacuum-annealing the devices at 900 °C, which enabled proximity-induced supercurrents up to 53 nA. SWCNT weak links fabricated on MoRe/palladium bilayer sustained supercurrents up to 0.4 nA after annealing at relatively low temperature of 220 °C. The fabrication process does neither expose SWCNTs to lithographic chemicals, nor the contact electrodes to the harsh conditions of in situ CVD growth. Our scheme facilitates new experimental possibilities for hybrid superconducting devices.

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) remain one of the most promising materials of our times. One of the goals is to implement semiconducting and metallic SWCNTs in photonics and microelectronics, respectively. In this work, we demonstrated how such materials could be obtained from the parent material by using the aqueous two-phase extraction method (ATPE) at a large scale. We also developed a dedicated process on how to harvest the SWCNTs from the polymer matrices used to form the biphasic system. The technique is beneficial as it isolates SWCNTs with high purity while simultaneously maintaining their surface intact. To validate the utility of the metallic and semiconducting SWCNTs obtained this way, we transformed them into thin free-standing films and characterized their thermoelectric properties.
