Parametric amplification with weak-link nonlinearity in superconducting microresonators
Nonlinear kinetic inductance in a high Q superconducting coplanar waveguide microresonator can cause a bifurcation of the resonance curve. Near the critical pumping power and frequency for bifurcation, large parametric gain is observed for signals in the frequency band near resonance. We show experimental results on signal and intermodulation gain which are well described by a theory of the par...
متن کاملParametric Amplification of a Superconducting Plasma Wave
Many applications in photonics require all-optical manipulation of plasma waves1, which can concentrate electromagnetic energy on sub-wavelength length scales. This is difficult in metallic plasmas because of their small optical nonlinearities. Some layered superconductors support Josephson plasma waves (JPWs)2,3, involving oscillatory tunneling of the superfluid between capacitively coupled pl...
متن کاملParametric Amplification and Cascaded-Nonlinearity Processes in Common Atomic System
For the first time, we study the parametric amplification process of multi-wave mixing (PA-MWM) signal and cascaded-nonlinearity process (CNP) in sodium vapors both theoretically and experimentally, based on a conventional phase-conjugate MWM and a self-diffraction four-wave mixing (SD-FWM) processes, which are pumped by laser or amplified spontaneous emission (ASE), respectively. For laser pum...
متن کاملDigital Readouts for Superconducting Microresonators
A large community has converged on the idea of using high quality factor superconducting microresonators to achieve dense frequency domain multiplexing at microwave frequencies. This technique uses wide bandwidth high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) to provide several GHz of bandwidth with noise temperatures below 5 Kelvin, potentially allowing thousands of detectors to be read out throug...
متن کاملSuperconducting Microresonators: Physics and Applications
Interest in superconducting microresonators has grown dramatically over the past decade. Resonator performance has improved substantially through the use of improved geometries and materials as well as a better understanding of the underlying physics. These advances have led to the adoption of superconducting microresonators in a large number of low-temperature experiments and applications. Thi...
