Fabrication and optical properties of ultrathin ferromagnet/superconductor metallic bilayers
Ferromagnet/superconductor (F/S) bilayers composed of ultrathin metallic films demonstrate new proximity effects and show a peculiar behavior of the superconductor-order parameter. In terms of applications, F films provide additional "anchoring" of the S film vortex lattice, resulting in i...

description | Ferromagnet/superconductor (F/S) bilayers composed of ultrathin metallic films demonstrate new proximity effects and show a peculiar behavior of the superconductor-order parameter. In terms of applications, F films provide additional "anchoring" of the S film vortex lattice, resulting in increased critical current. By changing composition and the thickness ratio of the F/S bilayer, one can modify the quasiparticle dynamics through an effective enhancement or suppression of the quasiparticle lifetime under nonequilibrium conditions. The latter effect should lead to "custom-designed" superconducting detectors, with the sensitivity and photoresponse speed tailored to a given application. We present fabrication details of nanometer-thickness NiCu/Nb bilayers of different F/S ratios. The NiCu/Nb structures have been implemented to fabricate Josephson junctions and tested using femtosecond optical spectroscopy. The time-resolved photoresponse experiments allowed us to measure the quasiparticle relaxation dynamics in our bilayers. In addition, the photoresponse temperature dependence studies revealed the spatial evolution of the superconductor-order parameter across the bilayer. Comparison between the bilayer data and the single-material data is also presented. |
