对约瑟夫森结中宏观量子隧穿证据的再评价

A Reassessment of the Evidence for Macroscopic Quantum Tunneling in a Josephson Junction

James A. Blackburn

摘要:

几十年来,开关电流分布一直是研究约瑟夫森结不可或缺的诊断工具。它们在检验毫开尔文温度下结中宏观量子态的猜想中发挥了关键作用。该测试的传统基础是观察SCD峰宽的温度独立性,并得出关于交叉的肯定结论。这里提出了一个不同的标准-从结临界电流的SCD峰的距离-和它的功效被证明。该测试在精度方面具有明显的优势,并且发现,对于三个示例实验,交叉到受限宏观量子态的证据是明确否定的。这一发现的超导量子比特的影响被认为是。

英文摘要:

Switching current distributions have for decades been an indispensable diagnostic tool for studying Josephson junctions. They have played a key role in testing the conjecture of a macroscopic quantum state in junctions at millikelvin temperatures. The conventional basis of the test has been the observation of temperature independence of SCD peak widths, and that led to affirmative conclusions about a crossover. A different criterion is proposed here - the distance of the SCD peak from the junction critical current - and its efficacy is demonstrated. This test has distinct advantages in terms of precision, and it is found that, for three example experiments, the evidence for a crossover to the conjectured macroscopic quantum state is unequivocally negative. The implications of this finding for superconducting qubits are considered.
