Analog computation of heterodyning with a voltage-biased Josephson point-contact
نویسنده
چکیده
2014 A system consisting of two resonant circuits coupled inductively with a resistive SQUID was investigated using an analog computer. Here it is reported on several results of special interest for microwave receiver application, namely spectra of heterodyning products, frequency shifting and operation at zero input.

Spin-polarized Shapiro steps and spin-precession-assisted multiple Andreev reflection
We investigate the charge and spin transport of a voltage-biased superconducting point contact coupled to a nanomagnet. The magnetization of the nanomagnet is assumed to precess with the Larmor frequency ωL when exposed to ferromagnetic resonance conditions. The Larmor precession locally breaks the spin-rotation symmetry of the quasiparticle scattering and generates spin-polarized Shapiro steps...
متن کاملStudent Laboratory Demonstration of Flux Quantization and the Josephson Effect in Superconductors
(Received 11 March 1968) A simple apparatus is described which permits observation of magnetic flux quantization and the alternating current Josephson effect in superconductors. The apparatus, which has been used successfully by students in the Advanced Undergraduate Physics Laboratory at Berkeley, consits of point contacts between two niobium wires which are attached to a probe so that the...
متن کاملExperimental investigation on parametric excitation of plasma oscillations in Josephson tunnel junctions
Experimental evidence for subharmonic, parametric excitation of plasma oscillations in Josephson tunnel junctions is presented. The experiments described a re performed by measuring the microwave power necessary to switch a Josephson tunnel junction biased in the zero voltage state to a finite voltage state.
متن کاملDirect measurement of the Josephson supercurrent in an ultrasmall Josephson junction.
We have measured the supercurrent flowing through a nonhysteretic, ultrasmall, voltage-biased Josephson junction. In contrast with experiments performed so far on hysteretic Josephson junctions, we find a supercurrent peak whose maximum I(s max) increases as the temperature T decreases. The asymptotic T = 0 value of I(s max) agrees with the junction Ambegaokar-Baratoff critical current, as pred...
متن کاملQuantum noise in current biased Josephson junction
Quantum fluctuations in a current biased Josephson junction, described in terms of the RCSJ-model, are considered. The fluctuations of the voltage and phase across the junction are assumed to be initiated by equilibrium current fluctuations in the shunting resistor. This corresponds to low enough temperatures, when fluctuations of the normal current in the junction itself can be neglected. We u...
