摘要:

约瑟夫森环形调制器(JRM)是一种基于约瑟夫森隧道结的器件,能够在微波区无损耗地执行非简并混频。通过求解耦合量子朗之万方程,计算了器件的一般散射矩阵。它的形式表明,该器件可以实现量子限制的噪声性能作为一个放大器和混频器。同时优化的性能指标,如增益,带宽和动态范围(包括泵耗尽的影响)的基本限制进行了讨论。我们还提出了三种可能的集成的JRM作为有源介质在不同的电磁环境。由此产生的电路,命名为约瑟夫森参量转换器(JPC),进行了详细讨论,并发现其动态范围的实验数据与理论预测吻合得很好。我们还讨论了未来的前景和必要的优化JPC作为一个量子位读出应用的计数器。

英文摘要:

The Josephson ring modulator (JRM) is a device, based on Josephson tunnel junctions, capable of performing non-degenerate mixing in the microwave regime without losses. The generic scattering matrix of the device is calculated by solving coupled quantum Langevin equations. Its form shows that the device can achieve quantum-limited noise performance both as an amplifier and a mixer. Fundamental limitations on simultaneous optimization of performance metrics like gain, bandwidth and dynamic range (including the effect of pump depletion) are discussed. We also present three possible integrations of the JRM as the active medium in a different electromagnetic environment. The resulting circuits, named Josephson parametric converters (JPC), are discussed in detail, and experimental data on their dynamic range are found to be in good agreement with theoretical predictions. We also discuss future prospects and requisite optimization of JPC as a preamplifier for qubit readout applications.
