چکیده

This paper summarizes recent results of our work toward a voltage standard based on a high-temperature superconducting (HTS) Josephson junction array. The concept of a programmable HTS voltage standard and technological aspects of its fabrication are discussed. New circuits providing uniform microwave current distribution along the HTS array are described.

SIS junctions with frequency dependent damping for a programmable Josephson voltage standard

Experimental and computational results on programmable Josephson junction array (JJA) chips based on superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) junctions are presented. Implications of circuit design and fabrication process on the performance are discussed. We introduce a method to decrease the attenuation of the pump microwave. Different designs are compared, suggesting that 1 V chips opera...

A 10 Volt “Turnkey” Programmable Josephson Voltage Standard for DC and Stepwise-Approximated Waveforms

The output voltage of Programmable Josephson Voltage Standard (PJVS) circuits has reached the 10 V benchmark, which was set over twenty years ago by conventional dc Josephson Voltage Standard (JVS) systems. The nonhysteretic Josephson junctions in these next-generation 10 V PJVS systems enable a number of advantages and additional features as compared with JVS systems. Most importantly, the new...

NbN-Based Overdamped Josephson Junctions for Quantum Voltage Standards

524,288 NbN-based Josephson junctions were integrated to produce a programmable Josephson voltage standard (PJVS) on a die of 15 mm × 15 mm, and the PJVS circuit was cooled to 10 K using a cryocooler and operated with a current margin of about 1.0 mA. Although an output voltage of 10 V was required for a voltage standard, the circuit was designed to generate the maximum output voltage of 17 V b...

Development of Josephson Voltage Standards

Exciting applications of superconductivity are based on the macroscopic quantum state which exists in a superconductor. In this chapter we investigate the behaviour of junctions consisting of two weakly coupled superconductors. These junctions are nowadays called Josephson junctions1 (Josephson, 1962). The macroscopic quantum state results in an exceptional behaviour of these Josephson junction...
