Evidence for Proximity Effect in Superconductor–Organic Semiconductor–Superconductor Stacked Devices by Anna Kremen, Hagit Aviv, Yaakov Raphael Tischler, Amos Sharoni

“…Sputtering the SC directly on the polymer causes pinholes, which we prevent by ultra-slow deposition of a 5 nm aluminum film, before depositing the top SC in situ. The Al protects the organic film from damage and pinhole formation, while preserving SC in the top electrodes due to the proximity effect between Al and NbN. …”
