We report on the dependence on field and temperature of the critical current of micro-SQUIDs: SQUIDs with diameters as small as 1 micron, using Dayem bridges as weak links. We model these SQUIDs by solving the Ginzburg-Landau equations with…
We have observed well-defined phase slips between quantized persistent current states around a toroidal atomic (23Na) Bose-Einstein condensate. These phase slips are induced by a weak link (a localized region of reduced superfluid density)…
A phase slip is a localized disturbance in the coherence of a superconductor allowing an abrupt 2$\pi$ phase shift. Phase slips are a ubiquitous feature of one-dimensional superconductors and also have an analogue in two-dimensions. Here we…
We study the metastable response of a highly hysteretic DC-SQUID made of a Niobium loop interrupted by two nano-bridges. We excite the SQUID with an alternating current and with direct magnetic flux, and find different stability zones…
The electron transport in current-biased superconducting nano-bridges is determined by the motion of the quantum vortex confined in the internal disorder landscape. Here we consider a simple case of a single or two neighbouring linear…
Magnetic nanoparticles play a crucial role in different fields such as biomedicine or information and quantum technologies. These applications require nanoparticles with a single, well-defined energy minimum, free of metastable states, and…
We realize a superconducting nanodevice in which vortex traps in the form of an aluminum square are integrated with a Dayem nanobridge. We perform field-cooling of the traps arriving to different vortex configurations, dependent on the…
Superconducting vortices and phase slips are primary mechanisms of dissipation in superconducting, superfluid, and cold atom systems. While the dynamics of vortices is fairly well described, phase slips occurring in quasi-one dimensional…
In this work, we study the current phase relation ($C\Phi R$) of lithographically fabricated molybdenum germanium (MoGe) nanobridges, which is intimately linked to the nanobridge kinetic inductance. We do this by imbedding the nanobridges…
In recent experiments with a superconducting nanosized Pb bridge formed between a scanning tunneling microscope tip and a substrate, superconductivity has been detected at magnetic fields, which are few times larger than the third (surface)…
An ordinary superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) contains two weak links connected in parallel. We model a multiple-wire SQUID (MW-SQUID), generalized in two ways. First, the number of weak links, which are provided by…
We analyze the dynamics of the order parameter in superconducting open nanotubes under a strong transport current in an external homogeneous magnetic field using the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equation. Near the critical transport…
We present transport measurements of unshunted dc superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) consisting of 30 nm wide aluminum nanobridges of varying length L contacted with two and three dimensional banks. 3D nanobridge SQUIDs…
We study nanodevices based on ultrathin superconducting nanowires connected in parallel to form nanowire SQUIDs. The function of the critical current versus magnetic field, $I_{C}(B)$, is multivalued, asymmetric and its maxima and minima…
Understanding the behaviour of vortices under nanoscale confinement in superconducting circuits is of importance for development of superconducting electronics and quantum technologies. Using numerical simulations based on the…
With the development of novel computing schemes working at cryogenic temperatures, superconducting memory elements have become essential. In this context, superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) are promising candidates, as…
We study voltage response of nano-bridge based DC-SQUID fabricated on a Si\_{3}N\_{4} membrane. Such a configuration may help in reducing 1/f noise, which originates from substrate fluctuating defects. We find that the poor thermal coupling…
We study quantum fluctuations of persistent current in a small superconducting ring. Based on a microscopic model of the ring we argue that under certain conditions such ring will exhibit coherent quantum phase slips, similar to those in a…
Nonlinearity is an essential ingredient for encoding quantum states with non-uniform energy spacing, implementing coherent quantum gates, reading out qubits, amplifying, and mixing electromagnetic signals. In this work, we demonstrate the…
We investigate the Josephson diode effect in an asymmetric SQUID consisting of a sinusoidal Josephson junction formed by a Bi$_2$Te$_2$Se flake and a superconducting Nb nanobridge with a linear and multivalued current-phase relation (CPR).…
