Abstract

A newly fabricated three-terminal Josephson junction is coupled with an InAs-inserted-channel InAlAs/lnGaAs heterostructure. The two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) confined in the inserted InAs layer has a high mobilityof 73800 cm2/V*s and a high sheet-carrier density of 1.98 x 1012 cm-2 at 4.2 K. The supercurrent flows through the2DEG and can be controlled by gate voltage. The critical current and the normal resistance as a function of gatevoltage are measured and the sheet-carrier density dependence of the critical current is obtained. The experimental results for this dependence are explained by the superconducting proximity effect theory and by the normaltransport of the 2DEG.
