Researchers Boost Josephson Photonics Gain by 14 dB

Quantum ZeitgeistSeptember 16, 20264 min read

Achieving a 14‑dB enhancement in signal amplification alongside improved noise represents a substantial leap forward for superconducting devices. Until now, limitations within Josephson Photonics have prevented stable phase control necessary for advanced operations like error correction. This new integration of a voltage standard delivers both phase-sensitive gain and squeezing within a single DC-biased amplifier, a capability previously unrealised.

A fourteen-decibel improvement in averaged gain was achieved along with improved quantum-limited noise performance within a new superconducting circuit architecture. A Josephson voltage standard integrated to create a stable phase reference for Josephson Photonics devices. This approach coherently transfers that reference to an inelastic Cooper-pair tunneling amplifier via the superconducting order parameter and also represents the first observation of phase-sensitive gain and squeezing in a dc-biased amplifier. An improved design for devices central to superconducting quantum technology…
