Manipulating the propagation of electromagnetic waves through sub-wavelength sized artificial structures is the core function of metamaterials. Resonant structures, such as split ring resonators, play the role of artificial "atoms" and…
We report on experiments with superconducting metamaterials containing Josephson junctions. In these structures, split-ring resonators used in conventional metamaterials are replaced by superconducting loops that are interrupted by…
Superconducting QUantum Interference Device (SQUID) metamaterials are superconducting artificial media whose function relies both on their geometry and the extraordinary properties of superconductivity and the Josephson effect. Recent…
We have prepared meta-atoms based on radio frequency superconducting quantum interference devices (RF SQUIDs) and examined their tunability with dc magnetic field, rf current, and temperature. RF SQUIDs are superconducting split ring…
We demonstrate a low-dissipation dielectric metamaterial with tunable properties based on the Josephson effect. Superconducting wires loaded with regularly spaced Josephson junctions ($I_c \approx 0.25$ $\mu$A) spanning a K-band waveguide…
We develop the concept of fractal metamaterials which consist of arrays of nano and micron sized rings containing Josephson junctions which play the role of "atoms" in such artificial materials. We show that if some of the junctions have…
We report low temperature, microwave transmission measurements on a new switchable and tunable class of nonlinear metamaterials. A wireless two dimensional array of Josephson junctions (JJ) is probed as a metamaterial where each plaquette…
The addition of nonlinearity to an harmonic resonator provides a route to complex dynamical behaviour of resonant modes, including coupling between them. We present a superconducting device that makes use of the nonlinearity of Josephson…
Circuit quantum electrodynamics systems are typically built from resonators and two-level artificial atoms, but the use of multi-level artificial atoms instead can enable promising applications in quantum technology. Here we present an…
We report on the microwave characterization of a novel one-dimensional Josephson metamaterial composed of a chain of asymmetric superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) with nearest-neighbor coupling through common Josephson…
Eigen oscillations in a superconducting parallel plate resonator with the Josephson-coupled plates are investigated. While the insulator thickness S changes from tens of microns down to the decay lengthscale of the superconducting…
Via a direct coupling between the magnetic order parameter and the singlet Josephson supercurrent, we detect spin-wave resonances, and their dispersion, in ferromagnetic Josephson junctions in which the usual insulating or metallic barrier…
In the presence of weak time harmonic electromagnetic fields, Superconducting Quantum Interference Filters (SQIFs) show the typical behavior of non linear mixers. The SQIFs are manufactured from high-T_c grain boundary Josephson junctions…
In the last few years, several groups have proposed and developed their own platforms demonstrating quantum-limited linear parametric amplification, with evident applications in quantum information and computation, electrical and optical…
In this article, we present an experimental study of a Josephson junction -based high-impedance resonator. By taking the resonator to the limit of consisting effectively only of one junction, results in strong non-linear effects already for…
We consider the propagation of a classical electromagnetic wave through a transmission line, formed by identical superconducting charge qubits inside a superconducting resonator. Since the qubits can be in a coherent superposition of…
An interaction of electromagnetic field with metamaterial thin film containing split-ring resonators with Josephson junctions is considered. It is shown that dynamical self-inductance in a split rings results in reduction of magnetic flux…
We present highly sub-wavelength magnetic metamaterials designed for operation at radio frequencies (RFs). A dual layer design consisting of independent planar spiral elements enables experimental demonstration of a unit cell size (a) that…
We present an analytical model which permits the calculation of effective material parameters for planar metamaterials consisting of arbitrary unit cells (metaatoms) formed by a set of straight wire sections of potentially different shape.…
We propose a way to control the Josephson energy of a single Josephson junction embedded in one- dimensional superconducting metamaterial: an inhomogeneous superconducting loop, made out of a superconducting nanowire or a chain of Josephson…
