Abstract

We report on the conductance of a short (<100 nm) silicon-based two-dimensional electron gas with superconducting source and drain electrodes. Below 1 K a zero-bias enhanced conductance is observed which depends on the carrier concentration in the electron gas. The data can qualitatively be understood as due to reflectionless tunneling; i.e., quantum-coherent-enhanced Andreev scattering.
