Evidence of Josephson-coupled superconducting regions at the interfaces of Highly Oriented Pyrolytic Graphite
Transport properties of a few hundreds of nanometers thick (in the graphene
plane direction) lamellae of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) have
been investigated. Current-Voltage characteristics as well as the temperature
dependence of the voltage at different fixed input currents provide evidence
for Josephson-coupled superconducting regions embedded in the internal
two-dimensional interfaces, reaching zero resistance at low enough
temperatures. The overall behavior indicates the existence of superconducting
regions with critical temperatures above 100 K at the internal interfaces of
oriented pyrolytic graphite.Comment: 6 Figures, 5 page
