Abstract
A thin-film superconductor-insulator-superconductor junction with a magnetic barrier, NiOx, and superconducting electrode, Nb, was fabricated. It is shown that the Josephson current was strongly suppressed without external magnetic field. The tunneling barrier was formed by plasma oxidation and or thermal oxidation. The junction with thermal oxidation showed low specific resistance and current–voltage characteristics with a clear energy gap structure. It is shown that this junction has the potential for quasiparticle mixer working at higher submillimeter wave frequency region above ∼700 GHz, especially suited for making an imaging array.
