Critical current fluctuations in graphene Josephson junctions

Abstract We have studied 1/f noise in critical current $$I_c$$ I c in h-BN encapsulated monolayer graphene contacted by NbTiN electrodes. The sample is close to diffusive limit and the switching supercurrent with hysteresis at Dirac point amounts to $$\simeq 5$$ ≃ 5 nA. The low frequency noise in th...
