Superconducting diode effect tuning

Caption

SDEs offer significant improvements in their ability to be ‘tuned’, compared to conventional semiconductor diodes. Measured current-voltage plots show a vanishingly small diode effect in normal conductor (left) and a large tunable diode effect in superconductors (right)
