We demonstrate the Josephson effect in a serial double quantum dot defined in a nanowire with epitaxial superconducting leads. The supercurrent stability diagram adopts a honeycomb pattern. We observe sharp discontinuities in the magnitude of the critical current, I_{c}, as a function of dot occupation, related to doublet to singlet ground state transitions. Detuning of the energy levels offers a tuning knob for I_{c}, which attains a maximum at zero detuning. The consistency between experiment and theory indicates that our device is a faithful realization of the two-impurity Anderson model.
我们在纳米线中定义的串联双量子点中展示了约瑟夫森效应,该量子点具有外延超导引线。超导电流稳定图呈蜂窝状图案。我们观察到临界电流 Ic 的大小作为点占据的函数出现急剧不连续,这与双重到单重基态跃迁有关。能级失谐为 Ic 提供了一个调谐旋钮,在零失谐时达到最大值。实验和理论之间的一致性表明,我们的器件是双杂质安德森模型的忠实实现。
