Supercapacitance and superinductance of TiN and NbTiN films in the vicinity of superconductor-to-insulator transition
Abstract We investigate the low-temperature complex impedance of disordered insulating thin TiN and NbTiN films in the frequency region 400 Hz–1 MHz in close proximity to the superconductor–insulator transition (SIT). The frequency, temperature, and magnetic field dependencies of the real and imagin...
