New publication: “Using Geometry to Sense Current”

Dec 9, 2016 | News Articles

We describe a superconducting three-terminal Y-shaped device that uses a simple geometric effect known as current crowding to sense the flow of current and actuate a readout signal. A complete description of the publication may be found here.
