Negative Hall coefficient of ultrathin niobium in Si/Nb/Si trilayers

Résumé

Structural and transport properties of thin Nb layers in Si/Nb/Si trilayers with Nb layer thickness d from 1.1 nm to 50 nm have been studied. With decreasing thickness, the structure of the Nb layer changes from polycrystalline to amorphous at d 3.3 nm, while the superconducting temperature T c monotonically decreases. The Hall coefficient varies with d systematically but changes sign into negative in ultrathin films with d < 1.6 nm. The influence of boundary scattering on the relaxation rate of carriers, and band broadening in the amorphous films, may contribute to this effect.
