Superconducting Bandpass Modulator With 2.23-GHz Center Frequency and 42.6-GHz Sampling Rate
This paper presents a superconducting bandpass modulator for direct analog-to-digital conversion of radio frequency signals in the gigahertz range. The design, based on a 2.23-GHz microstrip resonator and a single flux quantum comparator, exploits several advantages of superconducting electronics: the high quality factor of resonators, the fast switching speed of the Josephson junction, natural...
متن کاملA near-quantum-limited Josephson traveling-wave parametric amplifier.
Detecting single-photon level signals—carriers of both classical and quantum information—is particularly challenging for low-energy microwave frequency excitations. Here we introduce a superconducting amplifier based on a Josephson junction transmission line. Unlike current standing-wave parametric amplifiers, this traveling wave architecture robustly achieves high gain over a bandwidth of seve...
متن کاملCurrent-induced SQUID behavior of superconducting Nb nano-rings
The critical temperature in a superconducting ring changes periodically with the magnetic flux threading it, giving rise to the well-known Little-Parks magnetoresistance oscillations. Periodic changes of the critical current in a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID), consisting of two Josephson junctions in a ring, lead to a different type of magnetoresistance oscillations utiliz...
متن کاملMicrostrip superconducting quantum interference device radio-frequency amplifier: Effects of negative feedback on input impedance
We present the results of measurements of the scattering parameters of microstrip amplifiers MSAs based on the dc superconducting quantum interference device. The amplifier input impedance is poorly matched to typical transmission line impedances, resulting in high input return loss around 2 dB. We show that negative feedback can lower the MSA input impedance to achieve a robust match to 50 . I...
متن کاملThe physics of Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs)
(SQUIDs) Joey Lambert December 8, 2008 Josephson junctions are interesting devices that provide a great deal of physics to research, both experimental and theoretical. The device was first proposed by Brian Josephson in short concise paper in 1962 [1], which predicts a resistance-less supercurrent that passes through the very thin insulating layer in between two macroscopic size superconductors...
