Optimizing the Majorana character of SQUIDs with topologically non-trivial barriers
M. Veldhorst, C. G. Molenaar, C. J. M. Verwijs +2
We have modeled SQUIDs with topologically non-trivial superconducting junctions and performed an optimization study on the Majorana fermion detection. We find that the SQUID parame…
Macroscopic quantum tunneling and quasiparticle-tunneling blockade effect in s-wave/d-wave hybrid junctions
S. Kawabata, A. A. Golubov, Ariando +3
We have theoretically investigated macroscopic quantum tunneling (MQT) and the influence of nodal quasiparticles and zero energy bound states (ZES) on MQT in s-wave/ d-wave hybrid…
Experiments using high-Tc/low-Tc Josephson contacts
Ariando, H. J. H. Smilde, C. J. M. Verwijs +6
Remarkably rich physics is involved in the behavior of hybrid Josephson junctions, connecting high-Tc and low-Tc superconductors. This relates in particular to the different order…
Nondestructive readout for a superconducting flux qubit
A. Lupascu, C. J. M. Verwijs, R. N. Schouten +2
We present a new readout method for a superconducting flux qubit, based on the measurement of the Josephson inductance of a superconducting quantum interference device that is indu…
