The simulation of single cooper pair trasistor for megnetic flux detector

Jutarat Tanarom

This article presents a study on the characteristics of single Cooper-pair transistors when integrated into a Superconducting Quantum Interface Device (SQUID) circuit. SQUID is a highly sensitive magnetometer that uses phase balance checks through single Cooper-pair transistors when Josephson currents flow. The study explores the tuning of the supercurrent of the single Cooper-pair transistors in a circuit with a loop coupled to gate voltage. Understanding the behavior of single Cooper-pair transistors in this loop structure is crucial for integrating them with other superconducting electronic circuits. The research includes simulations of the single Cooper-pair transistor in one branch of a SQUID loop circuit. The simulation results indicate that single Cooper-pair transistors can be used as superconducting current switches.

Impact of on-chip gate voltage on the electric properties of NbTiN superconducting nanowire transistor

Qingchang Huan, Ruoyan Ma, Xingyu Zhang +8 more

In this work, the gate modulation characteristics of superconducting nanowire transistors (SNTs) were investigated under different on-chip gate voltage configurations. By fabricating NbTiN-SNTs with symmetric side gate, we studied the critical current suppression of SNTs under single, opposite, and double voltage gate. We figure out that the gate voltage and leakage current can be adjusted by the gate configuration. Moreover, it revealed an approximately twofold increase in modulation voltage for the opposite gate configuration as compared to the single gate configuration, implying a possible electric field tuned superconductivity. When simultaneously apply voltage on both gates, the onset and offset voltages kept unchanged, but the leakage current is then two times higher than that of single gate. In addition, under all these three types of gate configuration, the suppression of superconductivity coincided with the onset of leakage current, suggesting a potential charge injection mechanism. Our findings demonstrate that both the electric field and charge injection play important roles on the suppression of superconductivity in SNTs, which also contributes to the further optimization and applications of SNT.

Single flux transistor: The controllable interplay of coherent quantum phase slip and flux quantization

Sergey G. Kafanov, N. M. Chtchelkatchev

The single Cooper pair josephson transistor is a device that exhibits at the same time charge quantization and phase coherence. Coherent quantum phase slip phenomenon is “dual” the Josephson phase coherence, while the charge quantization is dual to the flux quantization. We present the experimental demonstration and the theoretical description of a new superconducting device–single flux transistor, which is dual to the single Cooper pair transistor. Our transport measurements show the periodic modulation of the critical voltage by the external magnetic field. The obtained current-voltage characteristics show the hysteretic behavior, which we attribute to the intrinsic self-heating of charge carriers.
