Geometric Asymmetry‐Enhanced Nonreciprocal Supercurrent Transport Revealed by Second‐Harmonic Response

Abstract Nonreciprocal transport in superconducting systems serves as a powerful probe of symmetry‐breaking mechanisms, with the superconducting diode effect emerging as a key manifestation enabling cryogenic rectification. While theoretical models have extensively explored superconducting nonreciprocity, experimental verification remains challenging, as conventional transport measurements struggle to disentangle intrinsic and extrinsic contributions. Nonlinear transport analysis, particularly second‐harmonic response, offers an alternative approach by providing a sensitive probe for detecting spatial inversion symmetry breaking in the presence of time‐reversal symmetry violation. Here, the influence of geometric symmetry on nonreciprocal transport by comparing two triangular‐extended Hall bar configurations with a symmetric Hall bar control is systematically investigated. Second‐harmonic nonlinear transport measurements reveal that the triangular extension significantly enhances nonreciprocal response, exhibiting a clear dependence on the base angle of the extension. These findings establish a direct connection between mesoscopic geometry and macroscopic nonreciprocity, demonstrating how spatial symmetry and vortex dynamics govern nonlinear transport. This insight offers a guiding principle for designing superconducting rectification architectures.
