Quantum analysis of a linear dc SQUID mechanical displacement detector
نویسندگان
چکیده
We provide a quantum analysis of a dc SQUID mechanical displacement detector within the subcritical Josephson current regime. A segment of the SQUID loop forms the mechanical resonator and motion of the latter is transduced inductively through changes in the flux threading the loop. Expressions are derived for the detector signal response and noise, which are used to evaluate the position and force detection sensitivity. We also investigate cooling of the mechanical resonator due to detector back reaction.

Quantum analysis of a nonlinear microwave cavity-embedded dc SQUID displacement detector
We carry out a quantum analysis of a dc superconducting quantum interference device SQUID mechanical displacement detector, comprising a SQUID with mechanically compliant loop segment, which is embedded in a microwave transmission line resonator. The SQUID is approximated as a nonlinear current-dependent inductance, inducing an external flux tunable nonlinear Duffing self-interaction term in th...
متن کاملBackaction noise in strongly interacting systems: the dc SQUID and the interacting quantum point contact.
We study the backaction noise and measurement the efficiency (i.e., noise temperature) of a dc SQUID amplifier and, equivalently, a quantum point-contact detector formed in a Luttinger liquid. Using a mapping to a dissipative tight-binding model, we show that these systems are able to reach the quantum limit even in regimes where several independent transport processes contribute to the current...
متن کاملElectromotive interference in a mechanically oscillating supercon- ductor
We consider the superconducting phase in a moving superconductor and show that it depends on the displacement flux. Generalized constitutive relations between the phase of a superconducting interference device (SQUID) and the position of the oscillating part of its loop are then established. In particular, we show that the Josephson current and voltage depend on both the oscillator position and...
متن کاملDecoherence and relaxation of a superconducting quantum bit during measurement
During measurement, information is transferred from the measured quantum system to the detector via their coupling. The same coupling that extracts information from the quantum system transmits noise from the detector’s environment to the system as well. In this paper, we derive the limit to the measurement efficiency of a superconducting persistent-current qubit measured by a dc superconductin...
متن کاملElectromotive interference in a mechanically oscillating superconductor: generalized Josephson relations and self-sustained oscillations of a torsional SQUID
We consider the superconducting phase in a moving superconductor and show that it depends on the displacement flux. Generalized constitutive relations between the phase of a superconducting interference device (SQUID) and the position of the oscillating loop are then established. In particular, we show that the Josephson current and voltage depend on both the SQUID position and velocity. The tw...
