Abstract

We have demonstrated proximity effect coupling between a high transition temperature superconductor and a normal metal. A device with a 1 Am long gold microbridge coupling two evaporated films of YBa2Cu3O7 has a dc supercurrent and exhibits the ac Josephson effect when irradiated with microwaves. These high quality S-N interfaces should have application to fundamental studies of the superconductor as well as to electronic devices.
