In this investigation we explore the effects of nonuniform magnetic bias fields on the voltage-flux curve of large two-dimensional arrays of superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs). The SQUID arrays (SQAs) contain 1020 SQUIDs modeled with parallel coupling in the x-direction and series coupling in the y-direction. Each array is composed of individual SQUID elements having non-uniform size loop areas, resulting in a non-uniform inductance parameter $beta_{L}$, and a single “anti-peak” feature at zero magnetic field in the voltage-flux transfer function. We examine the changed induced in the profile of the transfer function by gradients in the magnetic field in both the x- and y-directions. The height, slope, and symmetry of the anti-peak feature is compared with that from the same SQA exposed to a uniform field.
本文研究了非均匀偏磁场对大型二维超导量子干涉器件(squid)阵列电压-通量曲线的影响。SQUID阵列(SQAs)包含1020个SQUID,在x方向上采用平行耦合,在y方向上采用串联耦合。每个阵列由单个的SQUID元件组成,这些元件具有不均匀大小的环路区域,导致电感参数$beta_{L}$不均匀,并且在电压通量传递函数中具有零磁场时的单一“反峰值”特征。我们研究了在x和y方向上磁场梯度引起的传递函数剖面的变化。将反峰特征的高度、斜率和对称性与暴露在均匀场中的同一SQA进行了比较。

Superconducting nanowire single photon detectors (SNSPDs) based on Si substrates have demonstrated excellent performance, such as high efficiency, low dark count rate, short reset time and low timing jitter. But due to the lattice mismatch between NbN and Si substrate, the performance of film is limited. To this end, Nb5N6 layer is fabricated as the buffer layer between the NbN film and Si substrate, and that will reduce the mismatch and optimize superconducting properties of NbN films. The 6nm-thick film with a 65 nm-thick buffer layer shows the zero resistance critical temperature (Tc0) of 13.27 K, which is 5 K higher than that without buffer. Based on the NbN film on the buffered substrate, we fabricated SNSPD devices demonstrate critical current $(mathrm{I}_{mathrm{C}})$ of $65 mu mathrm{A}$ which is $5 sim 6$ times higher to the detectors without buffer. Besides, the experiment results prove that the buffer layer reduces the kinetic inductance, which fasten the recovery of nanowire.
基于硅衬底的超导纳米线单光子探测器(SNSPDs)具有高效率、低暗计数率、短复位时间和低时序抖动等优异性能。但由于NbN与Si衬底之间的晶格不匹配,限制了薄膜的性能。为此,制备Nb5N6层作为NbN薄膜与Si衬底之间的缓冲层,减少了NbN薄膜的失配,优化了NbN薄膜的超导性能。在6nm厚的薄膜上添加65nm厚的缓冲层,薄膜的零阻临界温度(Tc0)为13.27 K,比未添加缓冲层的薄膜高5 K。基于缓冲衬底上的NbN薄膜,我们制备的SNSPD器件的临界电流$(mathrm{I}_{mathrm{C}})$为$65 mu mathrm{A}$,比无缓冲的检测器高$5 sim 6$倍。实验结果表明,缓冲层降低了纳米线的动态电感,加快了纳米线的回弹速度。

Josephson junction devices enable computation of binary data by switching between superconductive and resistive states. The switching is triggered by a current flowing through the junction below or above the critical limit $(I_{c})$, which is sensitive to the physical features of the junction. Modeling the variation in the physical properties of these tunnel junctions due to processing conditions is crucial to understanding the variation in $I_{c}$ across the chip and simulating the electrical characteristics of the device. The aim of this research is to model the steps involved in the fabrication of Nb/Al-O/Nb Josephson Junction for large scale integrated superconductive circuits, which consists of mainly: (i) sputter deposition of Al on top of the Nb base electrode (ii) oxidation of the Al layer to form Al-O tunnel barrier (~1nm] and (iii) anodization of the junction. Developing a process TCAD tool by implementing the fabrication steps from the base layer will ultimately complement device simulation and offer useful insights for optimization.
约瑟夫森结器件通过在超导和电阻状态之间切换来实现二进制数据的计算。开关是由流过结的电流低于或高于临界极限$(I_{c})$触发的,这对结的物理特性很敏感。模拟这些隧道结的物理性质随加工条件的变化,对于理解芯片上$I_{c}$的变化和模拟器件的电气特性至关重要。本研究的目的是模拟用于大规模集成超导电路的Nb/Al- o /Nb约瑟夫森结的制造步骤,主要包括:(i)在Nb基电极上溅射沉积Al (ii)氧化Al层形成Al- o隧道势垒(~1nm)和(iii)阳极氧化结。通过从基础层实现制造步骤来开发过程TCAD工具将最终补充器件仿真并为优化提供有用的见解。

This paper presents the design of a one-bit full adder with sum and carry outputs as two single-stage gates, which could save the JJ count and the area compared with the conventional design of a full-adder. The schematics of both the Sum and Carry cells are shown in this paper along with their input and output waveforms of JSIM simulations in the time domain. The circuit cost is compared between the conventional full adder and the new single-stage adder design in terms of the area and the time. Integer dividers of several sizes are synthesized with conventional full-adder and the proposed single-stage adder to illustrate the advantages of the new design.

In this work we present a miniature solid nitrogen cooling system designed for 45 K operation of $(mathrm{high}-T_{mathrm{C}})$ superconductor Josephson devices. The system utilizes a small 100mL fiberglass Dewar and external pump to solidify nitrogen in thermal contact with a circuit board insert. Cooling tests reveal that the system holds at its base temperature of 45 K for over 12 hours. This can provide a low power, low weight system for ultra-portable superconductive electronics and other cryogenic sensors.

As a beyond-CMOS technology, superconducting single-flux-quantum (SFQ) technology promises fast processing speed and excellent energy efficiency. With the increasing complexity of SFQ circuits, the accurate and fast estimation of the workable clock period under process variation becomes more urgent. However, the estimation of the minimum workable clock period is difficult due to the spatial correlation of physical parameters and the non-normal distribution of timing parameters (propagation delay, setup time, and hold time). Therefore, a good statistical timing analysis (SSTA) tool for SFQ circuits is necessary. This paper presents a bootstrap-based statistical static timing analysis tool called qSSTA. qSSTA can reasonably estimate a minimum workable clock period by executing a large amount of bootstrap iterations from the discrete sampling spaces of all gates under a certain correlation specification. By applying path pruning methods, qSSTA skips the calculations on unimportant paths and hence reduce run time and memory. Experimental results show that the size of important paths could be small. Among 19114 paths of the 16-bit integer divider, only 73 paths are important to estimate minimum workable clock period. We only need 84.21 seconds to run 10,000 iterations.
超导单通量量子(SFQ)技术作为一种超越cmos的技术,具有处理速度快、能效高等优点。随着SFQ电路复杂度的不断提高,快速准确地估计工艺变化下的工作时钟周期变得越来越迫切。然而,由于物理参数的空间相关性和定时参数(传播延迟、设置时间和保持时间)的非正态分布,估计最小可行时钟周期是困难的。因此,需要一个好的SFQ电路统计时序分析(SSTA)工具。本文提出了一种基于bootstrap的统计静态时序分析工具qSSTA。qSSTA在一定的相关规范下,通过对所有门的离散采样空间执行大量的自举迭代,可以合理地估计出最小的可行时钟周期。通过应用路径修剪方法,qSSTA跳过了对不重要路径的计算,从而减少了运行时间和内存。实验结果表明,重要路径的大小可以很小。在16位整数分频器的19114条路径中,只有73条路径对估计最小工作时钟周期是重要的。我们只需要84.21秒来运行10,000次迭代。

We highlight the reproducibility and level of control over the electrical properties of YBa2Cu3O7 Josephson junctions fabricated with irradiation from a focused helium ion beam. Specifically we show the results of electrical transport properties for several junctions fabricated using a large range of irradiation doses. At the lower end of this range, junctions exhibit superconductor-normal metal-superconductor (SNS) Josephson junction properties. However, as dose increases there is a transition to electrical characteristics consistent with superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) junctions. To investigate the uniformity of large numbers of helium ion Josephson junctions we fabricate arrays of both SNS and SIS Josephson junctions containing 20 connected in series. Electrical transport properties for these arrays reveal very uniform junctions with no appreciable spread in critical current or resistance.

However, as dose increases there is a transition to electrical characteristics consistent with superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) junctions. To investigate the uniformity of large numbers of helium ion Josephson junctions we fabricate arrays of both SNS and SIS Josephson junctions containing 20 connected in series. Electrical transport properties for these arrays reveal very uniform junctions with no appreciable spread in critical current or resistance.","PeriodicalId":250606,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Superconductive Electronics Conference (ISEC)","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129380267","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
