    Josephson and tunneling junctions with thin films of iron based superconductors
    (Amsterdam [u.a.] : Elsevier, 2012) Schmidt, S.; Döring, S.; Tympel, V.; Schmidl, F.; Haindl, S.; Iida, K.; Holzapfel, B.; Seidel, P.
    We produced planar hybrid Superconductor - Normal metal - Superconductor (SNS') junctions and interfaceengineered edge junctions (SN'S' or SIS' with normal metal (N') or insulating (I) barrier) with various areas using Co-doped Ba-122 as base electrode. Varying the thickness of the Normal metal (gold) barrier of the planar junctions, we can either observe Josephson behavior at thinner gold thicknesses or transport dominated by Andreev reflection. The edge junctions seem to form a SN'S'-contact.

    A gold-nanotip optical fiber for plasmon-enhanced near-field detection
    (New York, NY : American Inst. of Physics, 2013) Uebel, P.; Bauerschmidt, S.T.; Schmidt, M.A.; Russell, P.St.J.
    A wet-chemical etching and mechanical cleaving technique is used to fabricate gold nanotips attached to tapered optical fibers. Localized surface plasmon resonances (tunable from 500 to 850 nm by varying the tip dimensions) are excited at the tip, and the signal is transmitted via the fiber to an optical analyzer, making the device a plasmon-enhanced near-field probe. A simple cavity model is used to explain the resonances observed in numerical simulations.
