Abstract
Modulation-doped InAs quantum wells with AlSb barriers and superconduc ting Nb electrodes form a model system for semiconductor-coupled super conducting weak links in the ballistic ('clean') limit. A tutorial out line of their general physics is presented, followed by a discussion o f selected properties of monolithic series arrays of such links, espec ially the puzzling temperature dependence of their current-voltage cha racteristics.
