Characterization of NbTiN films with thicknesses below 20 nm for low power kinetic inductance amplifiers
A. Giachero, M. R. Vissers, J. D. Wheeler +6
A quantum-limited amplification chain is a fundamental advantage for any application that may benefit from the detection of very faint signals. Reading out arrays of superconductin…
Ion irradiated YBa2Cu3O7 nano-meanders for superconducting single photon detectors
P. Amari, C. Feuillet-Palma, A. Jouan +8
We report the fabrication of few hundred microns long, hundreds of nanometers wide and 30 nm thick meanders made from YBa2CU3O7. Thin films protected by a 8 nm-thick Ce02 cap layer…
Ion-irradiated YBaCuO Josephson arrays
A. Sharafiev, M. Malnou, C. Feuillet-Palma +4
We designed, fabricated and tested short one dimensional arrays of masked ion-irradiated YBaCuO Josephson junctions (JJ) embedded into log-periodic spiral antennas. Our…
Josephson oscillation linewidth of ion-irradiated YBaCuO junctions
A. Sharafiev, M. Malnou, C. Feuillet-Palma +4
We report on the noise properties of ion-irradiated YBaCuO Josephson junctions. This work aims at investigating the linewidth of the Josephson oscillation with a detect…
High-Tc Superconducting Quantum Interference Filters (SQIFs) made by ion irradiation
S. Ouanani, J. Kermorvant, C. Ulysse +7
Superconducting Quantum Interference Filters (SQIFs) are arrays of superconducting loops of different sizes including Josephson Junctions (JJ). For a random distribution of sizes,…
Josephson mixers for terahertz detection
Maxime Malnou, Cheryl Feuillet-Palma, Christian Ulysse +6
We report on an experimental and theoretical study of the high-frequency mixing properties of ion-irradiated YBa2Cu3O7 Josephson junctions embedded in THz antennas. We investigated…
