Integration with conventional electronics offers a straightforward and economical approach to upgrading existing superconducting technologies, such as scaling up superconducting detectors into large arrays and combining single flux quantum (SFQ) digital circuits with semiconductor logic gates and memories. However, direct output signals from superconducting devices (e.g., Josephson junctions) a...

An rf superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) consists of a superconducting ring interrupted by a Josephson junction (JJ). The induced supercurrents around the ring are determined by the JJ through the celebrated Josephson relations. We study the dynamics of a pair of parametrically-driven coupled SQUIDs lying on the same plane with their axes in parallel. The drive is through the a...

We study the transport properties of multiterminal graphene nanodevices using the Landauer-Buttiker approach and the tight binding model. We consider a four-terminal device made at the crossing of a zigzag and armchair nanoribbons and two types of T-junction devices. The transport properties of graphene multiterminal devices are highly sensitive to the details of the junction region. Thus the p...

Abstract We present the simulated performance of a Josephson traveling wave parametric amplifier based on one-dimensional array radio-frequency single-junction superconducting quantum interference devices.

Microwave circulators play an important role in quantum technology based on superconducting circuits. The conventional circulator design, which employs ferrite materials, is bulky and involves strong magnetic fields, rendering it unsuitable for integration chips. One promising design on-chip a passive Josephson-junction ring. In this paper, we consider two operational issues such device: circui...

We present a technology based on Nb/NbxSi1−x/Nb junctions, with barriers near the metal-insulator transition, for applications in superconducting electronics (SCE) as an alternative to Nb/AlOx/Nb tunnel junctions. Josephson junctions with co-sputtered amorphous Nb-Si barriers can be made with a wide variety of electrical properties: critical current density (Jc), capacitance (C), and normal res...
