The cryotron is a switch that operates using superconductivity. The cryotron works on the principle that magnetic fields destroy superconductivity. This simple device consists of two superconducting wires with different critical temperature (Tc). The cryotron was invented by Dudley Allen Buck of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Lincoln Laboratory. As described by Buck, a straight wire of tantalum is wrapped around with a wire of niobium in a single layer coil. Both wires are electricall
