Abstract
We report resistivity and superconducting transition temperature measurements on ultrathin MoC films (down to 4.0 Å). We find that the critical sheet resistance separating the superconducting and insulating states at T=0 lies in the range 2.8–3.5 kΩ, which is about one-half of that reported for Bi films.Keywords
