Superconducting Acousto-optic Phase Modulator

Ayato Okada, Rekishu Yamazaki, Maria Fuwa +9

We report the development of a superconducting acousto-optic phase modulator fabricated on a lithium niobate substrate. A titanium-diffused optical waveguide is placed in a surface…

Enhanced coherence of all-nitride superconducting qubits epitaxially grown on silicon substrate

Sunmi Kim, Hirotaka Terai, Taro Yamashita +6

Improving the coherence of superconducting qubits is a fundamental step towards the realization of fault-tolerant quantum computation. However, coherence times of quantum circuits…

Scalable readout interface for superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors using AQFP and RSFQ logic families

Naoki Takeuchi, Fumihiro China, Shigehito Miki +4

We propose a scalable readout interface for superconducting nanowire single-photon detector (SSPD) arrays, which we call the AQFP/RSFQ interface. This interface is composed of adia…

Fabrication of Deep-Sub-Micrometer NbN/AlN/NbN Epitaxial Junctions on a Si Substrate

Wei Qiu, Hirotaka Terai

We have developed a novel fabrication process for ultra-small, full-epitaxial NbN Josephson junctions on a silicon (Si) substrate. A full-epitaxial NbN/AlN/NbN tri-layer was grown…

Nonreciprocal Terahertz Second Harmonic Generation in Superconducting NbN under Supercurrent Injection

Sachiko Nakamura, Kota Katsumi, Hirotaka Terai +1

Giant second-harmonic generation (SHG) in the terahertz (THz) frequency range is observed in a thin film of an s-wave superconductor NbN, where the time-reversal (-) a…
