Writing atomically thin superconductors with force
In our most recent work, in collaboration with the Wu lab at Princeton and the Rappe group at Penn, we have demonstrated that we can use mechanical force to write nanoscale superconducting lines onto a surface. We used an atomic force microscope to apply stress under its tip on MoTe2 stacks that were built on…
