The extent of the Cooper pair insulator phase in amorphous Pb$_{0.9}$Bi$_{0.1}$ nanohoneycomb films*

Amorphous Bi nanohoneycomb (NHC) thin films, which contain a nanometer-scale array of holes and regular thickness undulations, exhibit an insulating phase made up of localized Cooper pairs (CPs) near their thickness-driven insulator to superconductor transition (IST). This Cooper pair insulator (CPI) phase includes a giant magnetoresistance peak, also observed in InO$_{x}$ and TiN. We have now produced NHC films of a new material, Pb$_{0.9}$Bi$_{0.1}$, that show a qualitatively similar CPI phase. We will show the evolution of this CPI phase from deep in the insulating state to the IST using transport measurements. Throughout this regime, we will track the appearance, growth, and range of the magnetoresistance oscillations (which indicate CP transport) and giant magnetoresistance peak. Considering these observations, we will discuss the likely extent of CP transport in these insulators.
