Field Cooled Annular Josephson Tunnel Junctions

Roberto Monaco, Jesper Mygind, Valery P. Koshelets

We investigate the physics of planar annular Josephson tunnel junctions quenched through their transition temperature in the presence of an external magnetic field. Experiments car…

Flux Flow Effects in Annular Josephson Tunnel Junctions

Roberto Monaco, Jesper Mygind, Valery P. Koshelets

We investigate Josephson flux-flow in annular Josephson tunnel junctions (AJTJs) under the application of magnetic fields generating finite-voltage steps in their current-voltage c…

Traveling Electromagnetic Waves in Annular Josephson Tunnel Junctions

Roberto Monaco

It is well known that long Josephson tunnel junctions (JTJs) act as active transmission lines for the slow-mode propagation of magnetic flux-quanta (in the form of solitary waves)…

Confocal Annular Josephson Tunnel Junctions with Large Eccentricity

Roberto Monaco, Jesper Mygind, Lyudmila V. Filippenko

Confocal Annular Josephson Tunnel Junctions (CAJTJs) which are the natural generalization of the circular annular Josephson tunnel junctions, have a rich nonlinear phenomenology du…

Josephson Vortex Qubit based on a Confocal Annular Josephson Junction

Roberto Monaco, Jesper Mygind, Valery P. Koshelets

We report theoretical and experimental work on the development of a Josephson vortex qubit based on a confocal annular Josephson tunnel junction (CAJTJ). The key ingredient of this…

Superelliptic Josephson Tunnel Junctions

Roberto Monaco

The most important practical characteristic of a Josephson junction is its critical current. The shape of the junction determines the specific form of the magnetic-field dependence…
