Abstract
Recent technological advancements have enabled the preservation of near-perfect superconductivity and lattice structure in isolated, atomically thin Bi2Sr2CuCa2O8+δ (Bi-2212) crystals, facilitating the development of Bi-2212-based junctions [1,2]. These advancements focus on controlling the diffusion of oxygen interstitials, a key factor causing disorder in Bi-2212 cuprates. While intrinsic local lattice distortions in pristine cuprates [3] may contribute minimally without affecting the d-wave nature of the dominant order parameter, lattice distortions due to oxygen interstitials diffusion above 200 K [4,5] are detrimental. To counter this, a cryogenic stacking protocol has been developed, freezing oxygen interstitial motion at temperatures well below 200 K and rapidly establishing the interface in an ultra-low moisture environment [6-8]. This method has led to the creation of artificial intrinsic Josephson junctions, which show a strong dependence of Josephson energy on the twist angl...
