Nonreciprocal charge transport at topological insulator/superconductor interface

Nonreciprocal charge transport at topological insulator/superconductor interface

The superconducting proximity effect on the surface state of a topological insulator is promising to generate topological superconductivity. Here, Yasuda et al. reported enhanced nonreciprocal charge transport in a Bi2Te3/FeTe heterostructure with an emerging superconducting order parameter.
