Operation of a Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID) made of stacked Josephson junctions is analyzed numerically for a variety of junction parameters. Due to a magnetic coupling of junctions in the stack, such a SQUID has…
We report the creation of a pair of Josephson junctions on a toroidal dilute gas Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), a configuration that is the cold atom analog of the well-known dc superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID). We…
There exists an increasing evidence supporting the picture of the Josephson junction (JJ) as a "macroscopic quantum system". On the other hand the interpretation of experimental data strongly depends on the assumed theoretical model. We…
The phenomena of intermittent and complete synchronization between two out of three identical, magnetically coupled SQUIDs (Superconducting QUantum Interference Devices) are investigated numerically. SQUIDs are highly nonlinear…
The recovery of classical chaotic dynamics from quantum systems has long been a subject of interest. Furthermore, recent work indicates that quantum chaos may well be significant in quantum information processing. In this paper we discuss…
A theoretical study is presented on a number N of resistively shunted Josephson junctions connected in parallel as a disordered 1D array by superconducting wiring in such a manner that there are N-1 individual SQUID loops with arbitrary…
We developed a weak-linked Josephson junction time-domain simulation tool based on the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) theory to account for the electrodynamics of Cooper pairs and quasiparticles in the presence of thermal noise. The model,…
We propose an all-superconducting three-terminal setup consisting in a carbon nanotube (or semiconducting nanowire) contacted to three superconducting leads. The resulting device, referred to as a "biSQUID", is made of four quantum dots…
The measurement process is introduced in the dynamics of Josephson devices exhibiting quantum behaviour in a macroscopic degree of freedom. The measurement is shown to give rise to a dynamical damping mechanism whose experimental…
The development of superconducting electronics requires careful characterization of the components that make up electronic circuits. Superconducting weak links are the building blocks of most superconducting electronics components and are…
This paper applies the theory of continuous phase transitions of statistical mechanics to a slider-block model. The slider-block model is chosen as a representative of systems with avalanches. Similar behavior can be observed in a…
We present a detailed experimental and theoretical analysis of the dispersion and non-linear Kerr frequency shifts of plasma modes in a one-dimensional Josephson junction chain containing 500 SQUIDs in the regime of weak nonlinearity. The…
Quantum fluctuations of the phases of the order parameter in 2D arrays of mesoscopic Josephson junctions and their effect on the destruction of superconductivity in the system are investigated by means of a quantum-cosine model that is free…
We study occupation of certain regions of phase space of an asymmetric superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) driven by thermal noise, subjected to an external ac current and threaded by a constant magnetic flux. Thermally…
Superconductivity is commonly described as a macroscopic quantum phenomenon. However, it arises from microscopic mechanisms occurring at the nanometer scale as illustrated, for example, by the non-trivial pairing in unconventional…
Using the resistive-shunted-junction model we show that a split-ring Josephson oscillator or radio-frequency SQUID in the hysteretic regime is similar to an atomic system. It has a number of stationary states that we characterize. Applying…
Josephson junctions defined in strong spin orbit semiconductors are highly interesting for the search for topological systems. However, next to topological edge states that emerge in a sufficient magnetic field, trivial edge states can also…
We discuss the theory of linear and non-linear spectroscopy of an rf-SQUID coupled to a Josephson spectrometer. Recent experimental measurements on this system have shown a strongly non-linear absorption lineshape, whose current peak…
Quantitative analysis of the Josephson effect is shown to provide direct information about phase fluctuations in the superconducting banks. Applying the analysis to the cuprates, substantial quantum fluctuations between d-wave and s-wave…
We explore the quantum-classical crossover of two coupled, identical, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) rings. We note that the motivation for this work is based on a study of a similar system comprising two coupled…
