We investigate a class of two-dimensional two-band microscopic models in which the inter-band repulsive interactions play the dominant role. We first demonstrate three different schemes of constraining the ratios between the three types of…
We have observed a dissipative phase diffusion branch in arrays of hysteretic high-Tc intrinsic Josephson junctions. By comparing the data with a thermal activation model we extract the impedance seen by the junction in which phase…
Determining the state of a qubit on a timescale much shorter than its relaxation time is an essential requirement for quantum information processing. With the aid of a new type of non-degenerate parametric amplifier, we demonstrate the…
We study quasiparticle tunneling in Josephson tunnel junctions embedded in an electromagnetic environment. We identify tunneling processes that transfer electrical charge and couple to the environment in a way similar to that of normal…

A quartz Bulk Acoustic Wave resonator is designed to coherently trap phonons in a way that they are well confined and immune to suspension losses so they exhibit extremely high acoustic $Q$-factors at low temperature, with $Q\times f$…
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…

We study the radiative properties -- the Lamb shift, Purcell decay rate and the spontaneous emission dynamics -- of an artificial atom coupled to a long, multimode cavity formed by an array of Josephson junctions. Introducing a tunable…
A long-lived qubit is usually well-isolated from all other systems and the environments, and so is not easy to couple with measurement apparatus. It is sometimes difficult to implement reliable projective measurements on such a qubit. One…
