Superconducting Josephson tunnel junction is the basic component of superconducting qubits. This paper describes a technique using electron beam lithography and electron beam oblique evaporation technology combined to fabricate aluminum superconducting Josephson tunnel junctions. This method is simple can be completed through one photolithography. And the size tunnel junctions can be effectively controlled by adjusting the thickness of lower photoresist, oblique evaporation angle and the width of floating bridge. In addition, the tunnel junction leakage current performance is effectively improved by the use of asymmetric electrode structure and meet the requirements of superconducting qubit quite well.
