on the two potential barriers at the interfaces of the Al superconductor and the gold ‘normal’ contact. The fitted Lande g-factor is of an S-I-N-I-N device, where the middle N section is of 150nm length and the insulators are delta-function barriers of 4.5Vnm strength. A second channel was added modeling the direct tunneling into the Al superconductor, with barrier strength of 0.4V-nm. The fitted g-factor from the experiment was used, as well as the measured dependence of Al and ind on the magnetic field. The data was convolved with a Fermi-Dirac kernel to simulate a temperature of 30mK.
