• ### Substrate and Device Pattern Dependence of the Thermal Crosstalk in Y Ba$_2$Cu $_3$O$_{7-delta}$ Transition Edge Bolometer Arrays

Publication Year: 2006, Page(s):1953 - 1958

| |PDF (538 KB) | HTML

Using YBa2Cu3O7-delta (YBCO) thin films, pulsed laser deposited on 1-mm-thick LaAlO3 or SrTiO3 substrates, we made 4times1 pixel arrays of transition edge bolometers with separations between neighboring pixels ranging from 40 mum to 170 mum for testing purposes. We investigated the effects of the YBCO film thickness (200 and 400 nm), substrate... View full abstract»

• ### Effect of Thermal Noise and Trigger Jitter on the Operation of HTS Sampler

Publication Year: 2006, Page(s):1959 - 1965
Cited by:  Papers (1)
| |PDF (582 KB) | HTML

We have studied the effect of thermal noise and trigger jitter on the bandwidth of a high-Tc superconducting sampler by computer simulation and analytical calculation. Simulation results showed that the minimum IcRn product of the junctions required to obtain 100-GHz bandwidth is raised from 0.63 to 0.75 mV under the influence of the thermal noise at 40K. On the ot... View full abstract»

• ### Co-Sputtered Amorphous Nb$_{ x}$ Si$_{1 - { x}}$ Barriers for Josephson-Junction Circuits

Publication Year: 2006, Page(s):1966 - 1970

| |PDF (383 KB) | HTML

Co-sputtered amorphous NbxSi1-x has been developed as a barrier material for Josephson-junction array circuits. This material is quite promising as a normal-metal barrier for state-of-the-art Josephson voltage standards. In addition, the capability of tuning the barrier resistivity over a wide range that includes the metal-insulator transition could lead to applications in hi... View full abstract»

• ### Performance of an HTS Generator Field Coil Under System Fault Conditions

Publication Year: 2006, Page(s):1971 - 1975
Cited by:  Papers (14)
| |PDF (1253 KB) | HTML

High-temperature superconducting (HTS) coils are generally stable against transient thermal disturbances. Protection against spontaneous quenches is not a main design issue for an HTS coil. However, HTS coils used in many electric devices such as motors, generators, transformers, and current limiters will operate under over-current fault conditions, which may result in a coil quench and thermal ru...

• ### Observation of Bifurcations and Hysteresis in Nonlinear NbN Superconducting Microwave Resonators

Publication Year: 2006, Page(s):1976 - 1987
Cited by:  Papers (12)
| |PDF (1691 KB) | HTML

In this paper, we report some extraordinary nonlinear dynamics measured in the resonance curve of NbN superconducting stripline microwave resonators. Among the nonlinearities observed: abrupt bifurcations in the resonance response at relatively low input powers, asymmetric resonances, multiple jumps within the resonance band, resonance frequency drift, frequency hysteresis, hysteresis loops changi...

• ### Controlling Chaos in Josephson-Junction Using Nonlinear Backstepping Controller

Publication Year: 2006, Page(s):1988 - 1998
Cited by:  Papers (12)
| |PDF (1488 KB) | HTML

In this paper, a nonlinear backstepping controller has been designed to control bifurcation as well as incipient chaos that has been experienced in the RCLSJ (shunted nonlinear resistive-capacitive-inductance) Josephson-Junction. The results show that the system, without controller, has a dangerous Hopf bifurcation point that lead to chaotic behavior. For certain values of the external direct curr... View full abstract»

• ### Study of Superconducting Fault Current Limiter Using Vacuum Interrupter Driven by Electromagnetic Repulsion Force for Commutating Switch

Publication Year: 2006, Page(s):1999 - 2004
Cited by:  Papers (38)
| |PDF (1024 KB) | HTML

Using a high-temperature superconductor, we constructed and tested a model superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL). The superconductor and the vacuum interrupter as the commutation switch were connected in parallel using a bypass coil. When the fault current flows in this equipment, the superconductor is quenched and the current is transferred to the parallel coil because of the voltage drop ... View full abstract»

• ### Lumped 50-$Omega$ Arrays of SNS Josephson Junctions

Publication Year: 2006, Page(s):2005 - 2010
Cited by:  Papers (5)
| |PDF (507 KB) | HTML

For the first time, lumped series arrays of Josephson junctions have been fabricated with a transmission line-matched 50-Omega resistance. These arrays also have the thousands of junctions necessary to produce a metrologically significant voltage. This approach is expected to increase the output voltage per array and to optimize their performance for Josephson voltage standards. Traditional Joseph... View full abstract»

Publication Year: 2006, Page(s):2011 - 2017
Cited by:  Papers (11)
| |PDF (1478 KB) | HTML

Toggle-flip-flop (T-FF) is one of the most important high-Tc superconducting single-flux quantum (HTS SFQ) circuit components and has been designed and fabricated by using YBa2Cu3 O7-delta ramp-edge junction technology. The circuit layout of the T-FF was improved to suppress the junction critical current (Ic) spread in the circuit. Test circu... View full abstract»
