It is well known that one needs an external source of energy to provide voltage amplification. Because of this, conventional circuit elements such as resistors, inductors or capacitors cannot provide amplification all by themselves. Here,…
We demonstrate that the conversion gain of a superconducting hot-electron bolometer (HEB) mixer can be increased by biasing the device within the negative differential resistance (NDR) region of its current-voltage characteristic. Although…
We determine the small signal gain and noise response of an amplifier based on the nonlinear response of a quantum nanomechanical resonator. The resonator is biased in the nonlinear regime by a strong harmonic bias force and we determine…
We introduce a zero-bias superconducting voltage amplifier that harvests energy from a thermal gradient by exploiting negative differential resistance (NDR) in an asymmetric tunnel junction. The device is based on an asymmetric…
We propose a concept called acoustic amplifying diode in combining both signal isolation and amplification in a single device. The signal is exponentially amplified in one direction with no reflection and is completely absorbed in another.…
Non-reciprocal devices, which have different transmission coefficients for propagating waves in opposite directions, are crucial components in many low noise quantum measurements. In most schemes, magneto-optical effects provide the…
Directional amplifiers are an important resource in quantum information processing, as they protect sensitive quantum systems from excess noise. Here, we propose an implementation of phase-preserving and phase-sensitive directional…
Low-noise amplification atmicrowave frequencies has become increasingly important for the research related to superconducting qubits and nanoelectromechanical systems. The fundamental limit of added noise by a phase-preserving amplifier is…
We study a possible circuit solution to overcome the problem of low voltage gain of short-channel graphene FETs. The circuit consists of a fully differential amplifier with a load made of a cross-coupled transistor pair. Starting from the…
Amplification plays a key role in classical communication protocols, where it compensates the unavoidable loss of the signal. However, when we enter the quantum domain this approach starts being problematic as the standard kinds of…
Negative feedback is a powerful approach capable of improving several aspects of a system. In linear electronics, it has been critical for allowing invariance to device properties. Negative feedback is also known to enhance linearity in…
According to the fundamental laws of quantum optics, noise is necessarily added to the system when one tries to clone or amplify a quantum state. However, it has recently been shown that the quantum noise related to the operation of a…
Amplification underlies the operation of many biological and engineering systems. Simple electrical, optical, and mechanical amplifiers are reciprocal: the backward coupling of the output to the input equals the forward coupling of the…
Organic Zener diodes with a precisely adjustable reverse breakdown from -3 V to -15 V without any influence on the forward current-voltage curve are realized. This is accomplished by controlling the width of the charge depletion zone in a…
Quantum mechanics imposes that any amplifier that works independently on the phase of the input signal has to introduce some excess noise. The impossibility of such a noiseless amplifier is rooted into unitarity and linearity of quantum…
We observed qualitatively dissimilar frequency dependence of negative capacitive response under high charge injection in two sets of junction diodes which are functionally different from each other i.e. electroluminescent diodes and…
The operation of a typical common emitter amplifier, including negative feedback, is studied taking into account the non-linearity characteristic of real-world transistors. This has been accomplished by employing a recently proposed Early…
Feeding the common-source amplifier output to the back-gate terminal in fully depleted silicon on insulator (FD-SOI) technology exploits the linearizing effect of negative feedback. Analysis and simulation results in 22 nm FD-SOI show that…
We demonstrate a low noise, high-gain, resonant optical amplifier that combines injection locking with feed-forward cancellation of residual phase noise. The wavelength-agnostic architecture uses a commercial semiconductor diode laser as a…
Through self-consistent quantum transport simulations, we evaluate the RF performance of monolayer graphene FETs in the bias region of negative output differential resistance. We show that, compared to the region of quasi-saturation, a…
