Abstract

Transport properties of semiconductor heterostructures PbTe/PbS with a superconducting interface are studied. The influence of the electric current on the resistive state of the heterostructures is investigated. The possibility of the realization of the electric current induced superconductor-insulator transition is shown. The temperature dependence of critical magnetic fields of the transition is obtained.
