研究目的
To develop an optoelectronic pulse drive system for driving a Josephson junction array (JJA) to synthesize quantum-accurate voltage waveforms.
研究成果
An optoelectronic pulse drive system has been developed to drive a JJA, successfully demonstrating the synthesis of a unipolar 3.1 kHz sine wave. Future work includes testing with improved delta sigma codes, a lower noise digitizer, and distributed JJAs with a single ended output voltage.
研究不足
The preliminary results show that the largest harmonic is -55 dBc, the cause of which is under investigation. The system currently produces unipolar voltage waveforms only.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The system utilizes an FPGA for pattern generation and is compatible with delta sigma circuity under development. Commercial telecoms equipment is used to convert electrical pulses into optical pulses.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A lumped SNS JJA with 1024 junctions was used for preliminary tests.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
FPGA, PPG, MZM, EDFA, InGaAs photodiode, JJA, high impedance preamplifier, laboratory oscilloscope.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The system was tested with a digital code for a simple second-order single-bit delta-sigma encoded sine wave. The optical pulse height was adjusted for operation at the center of the first Shapiro step.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The output voltage was sampled at 500 MSa/s with a 10 bit laboratory oscilloscope.
