Abstract
As one of the candidates for realizing quantum bits, superconducting quantum bits, based on Josephson junction, have the advantages of easy integrating, coupling with the outside environment and so on. Double-layer photoresist was used to prepare suspended shadow mask by deep ultra-violet (DUV) lithography. We fabricated the sample of superconducting flux quantum bits by electron beam evaporation and static oxidization with aluminum as superconducting material. According to the dependence of the flatness on the thickness of aluminum film, we select 60 nm as the thickness of the bottom electrode of tunnel junction. By increasing the distance between the evaporation source and the substrate, we have improved the smoothness of film and thus reduced the leakage current of tunnel junction. The tri-layer structure of aluminum tunnel junction was observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and the relationship between the thickness of barrier layer and the oxidation pressure was obtained.
