Part of the array of the superconducting nanoloops. The diameter of the wires in the picture is 25 nanometers. The length of the wires in the small loops is 150 nanometers and in the large ones 500 nanometers, while the diameter of the wires that make up each loop is 25 nanometers (photo: the laboratory of Prof. Yosef Yeshuron, Bar-Ilan University)
