Pound-locking for characterization of superconducting microresonators.
We present a new application and implementation of the Pound-locking technique for the interrogation of superconducting microresonators. We discuss how by comparing against stable frequency sources this technique can be used to characterize properties of resonators that cannot be accessed using traditional methods. Specifically, by analyzing the noise spectra and the Allan deviation, we obtain ...
متن کاملDigital Readouts for Superconducting Microresonators
A large community has converged on the idea of using high quality factor superconducting microresonators to achieve dense frequency domain multiplexing at microwave frequencies. This technique uses wide bandwidth high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) to provide several GHz of bandwidth with noise temperatures below 5 Kelvin, potentially allowing thousands of detectors to be read out throug...
متن کاملSuperconducting Microresonators: Physics and Applications
Interest in superconducting microresonators has grown dramatically over the past decade. Resonator performance has improved substantially through the use of improved geometries and materials as well as a better understanding of the underlying physics. These advances have led to the adoption of superconducting microresonators in a large number of low-temperature experiments and applications. Thi...
متن کامل10 Characterization Techniques for Planar Optical Microresonators
Optical microresonators that are coupled to optical waveguides often behave quite similar to Fabry-Perot resonators. After summarising key properties of such resonators, three characterization methods will be discussed. The first involves the analysis of transmission and reflection spectra, from which important parameters like (waveguide) loss and coupling or reflection coefficients can be extr...
متن کاملParametric amplification with weak-link nonlinearity in superconducting microresonators
Nonlinear kinetic inductance in a high Q superconducting coplanar waveguide microresonator can cause a bifurcation of the resonance curve. Near the critical pumping power and frequency for bifurcation, large parametric gain is observed for signals in the frequency band near resonance. We show experimental results on signal and intermodulation gain which are well described by a theory of the par...
