Gate-defined Josephson weak-links in monolayer $\mathrm{W}\mathrm{T}{\mathrm{e}}_2$

Systems combining superconductors with topological insulators offer a platform for the study of Majorana bound states and a possible route to realize fault tolerant topological quantum computation. Among the systems being considered in this field, monolayers of tungsten ditelluride ($\mathrm{W}\mathrm{T}{\mathrm{e}}_2$) have a rare combination of properties. Notably, it has been demonstrated to be a Quantum Spin Hall Insulator (QSHI) and can easily be gated into a superconducting state. We report measurements on gate-defined Josephson weak-link devices fabricated using monolayer $\mathrm{W}\mathrm{T}{\mathrm{e}}_2$. It is found that consideration of the two dimensional superconducting leads are critical in the interpretation of magnetic interference in the resulting junctions. The reported fabrication procedures suggest a facile way to produce further devices from this technically challenging material and the results mark the first step toward realizing versatile all-in-one topological Josephson weak-links using monolayer $\mathrm{W}\mathrm{T}{\mathrm{e}}_2$.
