Proximity-induced superconductivity and quantum interference in topological crystalline insulator SnTe devices — •Robin Klett1, Joachim Schönle2, Denis Dyck1, Karsten Rott1, Shekhar Chandra3, Claudia Felser3, Wolfgang Wernsdorfer2, and Günter Reiss11CSMD, Bielefeld University, Germany — 2CNRS, Institut Neél, France — 3MPI for Chemical Physics of Solids, Germany

Topological states of matter host a variety of new physics that is promising for future technology. Among these phenomena, the emergence of metallic symmetry-protected topological surface states (TSS) are of major interest. The coupling of topological matter to a nearby superconductor is forsaken to host unconventional proximity-induced superconductivity. We demonstrate the fabrication of superconducting Quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) out of SnTe/Nb hybrid structures. Our findings show strong proximity-induced superconductivity in the surface of SnTe. Transport contributions of Majorana Bound States are predicted to enter with a shift in periodicity to DC SQUID experiments. The Analysis of the SQUID response suggest the absence of periodicity shifts, but show additional features expected for TSS carried supercurrents, such as unconventional Fraunhofer shapes.
