Microwave bifurcation of a Josephson junction: Embedding-circuit requirements

A Josephson tunnel junction which is rf driven near a dynamical bifurcation point can amplify quantum signals. However, the bifurcation point will exist robustly only if the electrodynamic environment of the junction meets certain criteria. We develop a general formalism for dealing with the nonlinear dynamics of a Josephson junction embedded in an arbitrary microwave circuit. We find sufficien...

Josephson junction microwave amplifier in self-organized noise compression mode

The fundamental noise limit of a phase-preserving amplifier at frequency [Formula: see text] is the standard quantum limit [Formula: see text]. In the microwave range, the best candidates have been amplifiers based on superconducting quantum interference devices (reaching the noise temperature [Formula: see text] at 700 MHz), and non-degenerate parametric amplifiers (reaching noise levels close...
