390–480 GHz photon-assisted tunneling steps generated by parallel Josephson tunnel junction arrays

Faouzi M. Boussaha, A. Féret, Christine Chaumont +9 more

We report on the first direct detection of submillimeter waves emitted by small parallel tunnel junction arrays. The arrays made up of 10 and 20 Nb/Al-AlOx/Nb junctions of 6 μm2is integrated and coupled in RF to Nb/Al-AlOx/Nb twin junction-based detector by a microstrip/slotline transition. The detector's I-V curve exhibits clearly photonassisted steps when the array is biased on the corresponding Josephson resonance at 390 and 480 GHz. These results are of particular significance in the light of previous work done on this type of devices. The arrays are specially suited for applications such as clock for RSFQ electronics or as local oscillator for THz superconducting integrated receivers.

Tunable THz source using superconducting tunnel junctions

Faouzi M. Boussaha, A. Féret, Christine Chaumont +2 more

We report on tunable submillimeter-wave radiation sources based on micrometer-sized superconducting tunnel junction arrays optimized within a bandwidth of 350-520 GHz. The arrays consist of 10, 20 and 40 Superconductor-Insulator- Superconductor (SIS) parallel-connected Nb/AlOx/Nb junctions embedded in superconducting microstrip lines. A SIS twin-junction is integrated along with each array to detect output signals. The pumped detector’s I-V characteristic exhibits clearly photon-assisted quasiparticule steps when the arrays are biased upon corresponding Josephson resonances ranging from 370 to 520 GHz.
