Multi-stage Quantum Amplifier Readout Chain

Logan Howe, Andrea Giachero, Michael Vissers +5 more

Multi-stage cryogenic readout chains with a wide bandwidth and added noise within a few quanta of the quantum limit are frequently constructed using traveling-wave parametric amplifiers (TWPAs) as the first stage, and a semiconductor amplifier as the second stage. Unfortunately for highly-scaled superconducting detector arrays, or quantum information systems, and space-based observatories, the power dissipation of the semiconductor amplifier becomes problematic from the perspective of available cryogenic cooling power at \mbox{3~K to 4~K}. Here we demonstrate a readout chain based on a two-stage kinetic inductance TWPA (KTWPA). This quantum-amplifier-based-readout-chain (QARC) provides sufficient gain that a cryogenic semiconductor follow-on amplifier can be eliminated without degradation of the system noise. In this way, the QARC dissipates approximately three orders of magnitude less power than readout chains containing semiconductor amplifiers while adding noise of less than 2~quanta over a 1~GHz bandwidth. In addition, by leveraging the high power handling of kinetic inductance technology, the QARC maintains an input compression point of -93~dBm, which exceeds that of many contemporary Josephson-junction-based parametric amplifiers.
