Abstract

The superconducting properties of NbTiGe multilayers have been studied in the weakly localized regime. By systematically varying the NbTi and Ge layer thicknesses, we studied the effect of disorder and interlayer Josephson coupling on T_c. The suppression of T_c with increasing Ge layer thickness suggests the importance of the barrier width in determining the superconducting properties in a multilayered system.
