説明:
(abstract)The combination of superconductivity and quantum Hall (QH) effect is regarded as a key milestone towards topological quantum computation in solid-state systems. Recent results based on quantum interference indicate that QH edge states can effectively mediate a supercurrent across high-quality graphene weak links. In this work we report the observation of a supercurrent tied to transitions between adjacent QH plateaus, where transport paths develop within the compressible two-dimensional bulk. We employ a back-gated graphene Josephson junction, comprising high-mobility CVD- grown graphene encapsulated in hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN) and contacted by Nb leads. We detect superconducting pockets persisting beyond the QH onset, up to 2.4 T, hence approaching the upper critical field of the Nb contacts. We reveal an approximate Φ0 = h/2e periodicity of the QH-supercurrent as a function of the magnetic field, indicating superconducting interference in a proximitized percolative phase. These results establish a possible experimental platform to investigate the transport regime of percolative supercurrent, exploiting the flexibility of van der Waals devices.
