Josephson junctions with three or more superconducting leads have been predicted to exhibit topological effects in the presence of few conducting modes within the interstitial normal material. Such behavior, of relevance for…
We propose a scheme to implement a tunable, wide frequency-band dissipative environment using a double chain of Josephson junctions. The two parallel chains consist of identical SQUIDs, with magnetic-flux tunable inductance, coupled to each…
Superconducting circuits are exceptionally flexible, enabling many different devices from sensors to quantum computers. Separately, epitaxial semiconductor devices such as spin qubits in silicon offer more limited device variation but…
The combination of an ordinary s-type superconductor with three-dimensional topological insulators creates a promising platform for fault-tolerant topological quantum computing circuits based on Majorana braiding. The backbone of the…
Gaussian linking of superconducting loops containing Josephson junctions with enclosed magnetic fields give rise to interference shifts in the phase that modulates the current carried through the loop, proportional to the magnitude of the…
Due to the structure of the underlying SO(3) $\mathbf d$-vector order parameter, spin triplet superconductors exhibit a bulk-edge correspondence linking the circulation of supercurrent to the bulk magnetic skyrmion density, giving rise to…
We study the coherence of flux-tunable Josephson junction resonators made with two different fabrication processes. In the first process, devices are made using a single step of evaporation in which the resonator and the junctions of the…
The non-dissipative non-linearity of a Josephson junction converts macroscopic superconducting circuits into artificial atoms, enabling some of the best controlled quantum bits (qubits) today. Three fundamental types of superconducting…
A 1D Josephson junction loop, doped with a spin-flipper and attached to two thermal reservoirs, operates as a heat engine or a refrigerator, a Joule pump, or even a cold pump. When operating as a quantum heat engine, the efficiency of this…
We show that shunt capacitor stabilizes synchronized oscillations in intrinsic Josephson junction stacks biased by DC current. This synchronization mechanism has an effect similar to the previously discussed radiative coupling between…
We study the Josephson current in two types of lateral junctions with spin-orbit coupling and an exchange field. The first system (type 1 junction) consists of superconductors with heavy metal interlayers linked by a ferromagnetic bridge,…
The superconducting diode effect (SDE) is a magneto-electric phenomenon where an external magnetic field imparts a non-zero center-of-mass momentum to Cooper pairs, either facilitating or hindering the flow of supercurrent depending on its…
Planar arrays of magnetoinductively coupled rf SQUIDs belong to the emergent class of superconducting metamaterials that encompass the Josephson effect. SQUID metamaterials acquire their electromagnetic properties from the resonant…
In spite of extended efforts, detecting thermoelectric effects in superconductors have proven to be a challenging task, due to the inherent superconducting particle-hole symmetry. Here we present a theoretical study of an experimentally…
We analyze the magnetic and transport properties of a double quantum dot coupled to superconducting leads. In addition to the possible phase transition to a $\pi$ state, already present in the single dot case, this system exhibits a richer…
We discuss the prospect of using quantum properties of large scale Josephson junction arrays for quantum manipulation and simulation. We study the collective vibrational quantum modes of a Josephson junction array and show that they provide…
The Cooper pair box qubit of SQUID configuration enables the readout of the qubit states by probing the effective Josephson inductance of the SQUID. This is realized by coupling the qubit to a tank circuit which induces a small alternating…
We report the realization of multilayer three-dimensional nanobridge Josephson junctions based on Nb/NbN and Nb/TiN superconducting stacks fabricated using electron-beam lithography and chlorine-based dry etching. In this architecture, a…
We develop a theory for the quantum circuit consisting of a superconducting loop interrupted by four Josephson junctions and pierced by a magnetic flux (either static or time-dependent). In addition to the similarity with the typical…
We investigate 3-junction SQUIDs which show voltage rectification if biased with an ac current drive with zero mean value. The Josephson phase across the SQUID experiences an effective ratchet potential, and the device acts as an efficient…
