Suppression of the superconductivity in ultrathin amorphous Mo₇₈Ge₂₂ films observed by STM

In contact with a superconductor a normal metal modifies its properties due to Andreev reflection. In the current work the local density of states (LDOS) of superconductor–normal metal Mo₇₈Ge₂₂–Au bilayers are studied by means of STM applied from the Au side. Three bilayers have been prepared on sil...
