Modeling the Transfer Function of Two-Dimensional SQUID and SQIF Arrays with Thermal Noise

M. A. Galí Labarias, K.‐H. Müller, E.E. Mitchell

We present a theoretical model for two-dimensional (2D) superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) and superconducting quantum interference filter (SQIF) arrays with overdamped Josephson junctions for uniform bias-current injection at 77 K. Our simulations demonstrate the importance of including Johnson thermal noise and reveal that only the SQUID-loops self-inductance contributions are of importance. Our numerical results establish the validity of a scaling behavior between the voltages of one-dimensional (1D) and 2D SQUID arrays and show that the same scaling behavior applies to the maximum transfer functions. The maximum transfer function of a 2D SQUID array can be further optimized by applying the optimal bias current, which depends on the SQUID-loop self-inductance and the junction critical current. Our investigation further reveals that a scaling behavior exists between the maximum transfer function of a 2D SQUID array and that of a single dc SQUID. Finally, we investigate the voltage response of 1D and 2D SQIF arrays and illustrate the effects of adding spreads in the heights and widths of SQUID loops.

Applications of Josephson junction SQUIDs Superconducting Quantum Interference Device) and Arrays

Arnold H. Silver

This is the first Annual Report for an effort to demonstrate the application of SQUIDs (Superconducting Quantum Interference Device) and SQUID arrays to microwave systems. The application considered here is a microwave voltage-controlled oscillator. We report on the circuit design, numerical simulation, experimental design, and fabrication of the device including tests of the monolithic impedance transformer. Predicted available power is approximately 10 nW into a load impedance of ohm.

Development of 2-D Bi-SQUID Arrays With High Linearity

Susan A. E. Berggren, G. Prokopenko, Patrick Longhini +11 more

We develop a two-dimensional (2-D) superconducting quantum interference filter (SQIF) array based on the recently introduced high-linearity tri-junction bi-SQUIDs (superconducting quantum interference device). Our bi-SQUID SQIF array design is based on a tight integration of individual bi-SQUID cells sharing inductances with adjacent cells. We provide extensive computer simulations, analysis, and experimental measurements, in which we explore the phase dynamics and linearity of the array voltage response. The nonuniformity in inductances of the bi-SQUIDs produces a pronounced zero-field single antipeak in the voltage response. The antipeak linearity and size can be optimized by varying the critical current of the additional junction of each bi-SQUID. The layout implementation of the tight 2-D array integration leads to a distinct geometrical diamond shape formed by the merged dual bi-SQUID cells. Different-sized 2-D arrays are fabricated using the standard HYPRES niobium 4.5 kA/cm2fabrication process. The measured linearity, power gain, and noise properties will be analyzed for different array sizes and the results will be compared with circuit simulations. We will discuss a design approach for the electrically small magnetic field antenna and low-noise amplifiers with high bandwidth based on these 2-D bi-SQUID SQIF arrays. The results from this work will be used to design chips densely and completely covered in bi-SQUIDs that have optimized parameters such as linearity and power gain.
