  1. Superconducting diodes areproposed nonreciprocal circuit elements thatshould exhibit nondissipative transport inone direction while being resistive intheopposite direction. Multiple examples ofsuch devices have emerged inthepastcouple ofyears; however, their efficiency istypically limited, andmost ofthem require amagnetic field tofunction. Here wepresent adevice thatachieves efficiencies approaching 100% while operating atzero field. Our samples consist ofanetwork ofthree graphene Josephson junctions linked byacommon superconducting island, towhich werefer asa Josephson triode. Thethree-terminal nature ofthedevice inherently breaks theinversion symmetry, andthecontrol current applied toone ofthecontacts breaks thetime-reversal symmetry. Thetriode’s utility isdemonstrated byrectifying asmall (nA scale amplitude) applied square wave. Wespeculate thatdevices ofthistype could berealistically employed inthemodern quantum circuits.
