Fermi-arc supercurrent oscillations in Dirac semimetal Josephson junctions

Superconductivity through the topological surface states of a Dirac semimetal remains elusive. Here, the authors fabricate a Nb-Cd3As2-Nb Josephson junction and observe supercurrent oscillations from surface Fermi arcs of Cd3As2
