An optimal tunable Josephson element for quantum computing

F. Chiarello, Maria Gabriella Castellano, G. Torrioli +6 more

We introduce a three-junction superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) that can be used as an optimal tunable element in Josephson quantum computing applications. This device can replace the simple dc SQUID generally used as a tunable element in this kind of applications, with a series of advantages concerning the coherence time and the tolerance to small errors. We study the device both theoretically and experimentally at 4.2K, obtaining a good agreement between the results.

Transparency-engineered SQUID cells for Kerr-free three-wave-mixing Josephson metamaterials

Claudio Guarcello, A. Mert Bozkurt, C. Barone +3 more

We introduce a transparency-engineered rf-SQUID cell for Kerr-free three-wave-mixing Josephson metamaterials. This design replaces the conventional tunnel-junction element with an effective Josephson element formed by two junctions in series, yielding a non-sinusoidal energy-phase relation that can be used as a tunable nonlinear design resource. We show that the asymmetry between the two series junctions and the applied flux bias provide independent control over the local expansion of the rf-SQUID potential, enabling operating points where the leading quartic Kerr term is suppressed while the cubic nonlinearity remains finite. We derive the corresponding Kerr-free condition, identify the resulting operating ridge in parameter space, and analyze the local stability and passive-matching constraints that bound its physically accessible portion. Our results provide a compact unit-cell design principle for three-wave-mixing Josephson metamaterials and suggest a route toward Kerr-suppressed Josephson traveling-wave parametric amplifiers.
