摘要： A wireless Josephson-junction-based parametric converter is described. The converter may be formed on a substrate with antennas that pump are configured to wirelessly receive pump, signal and idler frequencies and couple the received frequencies to the converter's circuitry. Capacitors may also be fabricated on the same substrate and sized to tune operation of the converter to desired frequencies. The converter may be coupled directly to microwave waveguides, and may be tuned to different signal frequencies by applying magnetic flux to the converter circuitry.

摘要： A superconducting device includes two nodes and a Josephson junction coupled between the two nodes, wherein the Josephson junction is characterized by a superconducting phase difference, φ, wherein the superconducting device has a potential that varies as a function of the superconducting phase difference, φ, and has a single potential well. The potential has a non-zero cubic term and quartic term is zero. The Josephson junction may be a single small Josephson junction. The superconducting device may include a superconducting ring connected between the two nodes. The superconducting ring may include a first ring portion with a plurality of large Josephson junctions connected in series. The superconducting ring may also include a second ring portion that includes the single small Josephson junction in parallel with the plurality of large Josephson junctions between the two nodes.

摘要： A wireless Josephson-junction-based amplifier is described that provides improved tunability and increased control over both a quality factor Q and participation ratio p of the amplifier. The device may be fabricated on a chip and mounted in a waveguide. No wire bonding between the amplifier and coaxial cables or a printed circuit board is needed. At least one antenna on the chip may be used to couple energy between the waveguide and wireless JBA. The amplifier is capable of gains greater than 25 dB.
