Gate-tunable semiconductor nanowires with superconducting leads have great potential for quantum computation and as model systems for mesoscopic Josephson junctions. The supercurrent, $I$, versus the phase, $\phi$, across the junction is…
We have fabricated and studied a new kind of DC SQUID in which the magnitude and sign of the critical current of the individual Josephson junctions can be controlled by additional voltage probes connected to the junctions. We show that the…
The Josephson current in a diffusive superconductor/ferromagnet/superconductor junction with precessing magnetization is calculated within the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity. When the junction is phase-biased, a stationary…
We consider a system of two semifluxons of opposite polarity in a 0-pi-0 long Josephson junction, which classically can be in one of two degenerate states: up-down or down-up. When the distance $a$ between the 0-pi boundaries (semifluxon's…
Critical current was recently measured near the transition from 0 to $\pi$-contact in superconductor/ferromagnet/superconductor Josephson junctions. Contrary to expectations, it does not vanish at the transition point. It shows instead a…
We report on the development of a new family of SQUID current sensors based on sub-micron cross-type Josephson tunnel junctions. Their low total junction capacitance permit high usable voltage swings of more than 100 {\mu}V and exceptional…
We consider a superconducting loop with two weak links that encloses a magnetic flux. The weak links are unequal and are treated as Josephson junctions with non-sinusoidal phase dependence. We devise a model that takes into account the…
A beta-ray detecting nuclear quadrupole resonance system has been developed at NSCL/MSU to measure ground-state electric quadrupole moments of short-lived nuclei produced as fast rare isotope beams. This system enables quick and sequential…
We describe the construction and operation of a two-channel noise detection system for measuring power and cross spectral densities of current fluctuations near 2 MHz in electronic devices at low temperatures. The system employs cryogenic…
We study non-equilibrium Josephson effect and phase-dependent conductance in three-terminal diffusive interferometers with short arms. We consider strong proximity effect and investigate an interplay of dissipative and Josephson currents…
We have identified anomalous behavior of the escape rate out of the zero-voltage state in Josephson junctions with a high critical current density Jc. For this study we have employed YBa2Cu3O7-x grain boundary junctions, which span a wide…
The aim of change-point detection is to identify behavioral shifts within time series data. This article focuses on scenarios where the data is derived from an inhomogeneous Poisson process or a marked Poisson process. We present a…
We find the admittance $Y(\omega)$ of a Josephson junction at or near a topological transition. The dependence of the admittance on frequency and temperature at the critical point is universal and determined by the symmetries of the system.…
The multiterminal Josephson effect aroused considerable interest recently, in connection with theoretical and experimental evidence for correlations among Cooper pairs, that is, the so-called Cooper quartets. It was further predicted that…
We introduce a new approach to the Josephson effect in SIS tunnel junctions. The Josephson coupling energy is calculated from the overlap of real space Cooper pair wavefunctions in two superconductors through an insulating barrier. It is…
We investigate the dependence of switching current density on the junction sizes in the spin transfer torque nanopillar structures by using micromagnetic simulations. While the macro spin model predicts weak dependence of switching current…
According to the statistical distribution laws, all the elementary particles in the real 3+1-dimensional world must and only be chosen as either bosons or fermions, without exception and not both. Here, we experimentally verified that a…
Along with the scaling of dimensions in quantum systems, transitions between the system's energy levels would become close in frequency, which are conventionally resolved by weak and lengthy pulses. Here, we extend and experimentally…
In time-domain measurements of a Poisson two-level system, the observed transition rates are always smaller than those of the actual system, a general consequence of finite measurement bandwidth in an experiment. This underestimation of the…
For Josephson junctions based on s-wave superconductors, time-reversal symmetry is known to allow for powerful relations between the normal-state junction properties, the excitation spectrum, and the Josephson current. Here we provide…
