Abstract

One aspect provides semiconductor-superconductor hybrid device comprises a substrate, a first semiconductor component arranged on the substrate, a superconductor component arranged to be capable of energy level hybridisation with the first semiconductor component, and a second semiconductor component arranged as a gate electrode for gating the first semiconductor component. Another aspect provides a semiconductor-superconductor hybrid device, comprising: a substrate; a semiconductor component arranged on the substrate; a gate electrode for gating the semiconductor component; and a superconductor component capable of undergoing energy level hybridisation with the semiconductor component; wherein the gate electrode is arranged in a channel in the substrate. Also provided are methods of fabricating the semiconductor-superconductor hybrid devices.
