Abstract
An interconnect may have a first end coupled to a superconducting system and a second end coupled to a non-superconducting system. The interconnect may include a superconducting element having a critical temperature. During operation of the superconducting system and the non-superconducting system, a first portion of the interconnect near the first end may have a first temperature equal to or below the critical temperature of the superconducting element, a second portion of the interconnect near the second end may have a second temperature above the critical temperature of the superconducting element, and the interconnect may further be configured to reduce a length of the second portion such that temperature substantially over an entire length of the interconnect is maintained at a temperature equal to or below the critical temperature of the superconducting element.
