The trend to all digital processing and software defined radio receivers was driven by a lack of flexibility, reliability and loss in the analog processing block of receivers. While the flexibility of software defined radio is clear, cryogenic temperatures offer an opportunity to exploit lower thermal noise in standard components and increase overall system efficiency and performance by...
It is well established that superconducting materials will emit microwave/terahertz radiation when illuminated with a femtosecond infrared laser pulse. Typically this phenomena is examined by illuminating a voltage biased superconducting thin film bridge. In this investigation an inductively charged superconducting thin film ring is considered. We believe the configuration lends itself to a...
As superconductor digital integrated circuits (ICs) mature to productization, they require rapid evaluation of multiple copies to obtain statistical operational data. These data are used for assessing model-to-hardware correlation and facilitate iterative IC design development. The Integrated Cryogenic Electronics Testbed (ICE-T) is a cryogen-free test platform, which can test multiple chips...
