Abstract

A method of fabricating a device including a superconductive layer includes depositing a seed layer on a substrate at a first temperature, the seed layer being a nitride of a first metal, reducing the temperature of the substrate to a second temperature that is lower than the first temperature, increasing the temperature of the substrate to a third temperature that is higher than the first temperature to form a modified seed layer, and depositing a metal nitride superconductive layer directly on the modified seed layer at the third temperature, the superconductive layer being a nitride of a different second metal.
