Quadristor: a novel device for superconducting electronics

Abstract

We designed and experimentally demonstrated a four-terminal superconducting device which can function as a non-latching (reversible) superconducting switch from the diode regime to the resistive state by applying a control current much smaller than the main transport current. The device utilizes a vortex-based superconducting diode mechanism which is switched back and forth via the injection of flux quanta through auxiliary current leads. Various applications in superconducting electronics can be foreseen.
