I don't think so. Semiconductor processing requires very clean steps. and superconductors require the use of heavy metals, which can contaminate the process. Besides, superconductors require special equipment that does not exist in the semiconductor industry. The cost of introducing superconducting materials outweighs the benefits of using the materials. Perhaps one day, superconductors and semiconductors can co-exist in an integrated circuit.

If the question is about whether superconductors are involved in fabricating transistors (meaning the fabrication equipment), I don't see a need -- we can make do with what we have.
