Superconducting materials present unique properties, which make a potential technological platform based on superconductors extremely appealing for a wide set of applications, both classical and not. Among these classes of materials, high-kinetic inductanc ...

Quantum metrology, a cornerstone of quantum technologies, exploits entanglement and superposition to achieve higher precision than classical protocols in parameter-estimation tasks. When combined with critical phenomena such as phase transitions, the diver ...

The Origins Space Telescope mission concept includes an exoplanet transit spectrometer that requires detector arrays with ultrahigh pixel-to-pixel stability. Superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors, or SNSPDs, have the potential to meet these stri ...

Parametric amplifiers play a crucial role in modern quantum technology by enabling the enhancement of weak signals with minimal added noise. Traditionally, Josephson junctions have been the primary choice for constructing parametric amplifiers. Nevertheles ...

We present here, for the first time, a fabrication technique that allows manufacturing scallop free, non-tapered, high aspect ratio in through-silicon vias (TSVs) on silicon wafers. TSVs are among major technology players in modern high-volume manufacturin ...

Superconducting microwave metamaterials offer enormous potential for quantum optics and information science, enabling the development of advanced quantum technologies for sensing and amplification. In the context of circuit quantum electrodynamics, such me ...

Micron-scale shaped 2D or 2.5D structures made of silver or copper can be produced by combining silicon photolithographic etching with metal casting by pressure infiltration. This combination of two classical pro-cesses, one from semiconductor fabrication ...

A method for manufacturing vias in a silicon wafer, the silicon wafer having a crystal orientation, and having a plane that is perpendicular to a surface of the wafer, tilted by 35.26°, the method comprising the steps of providing a mask having ...

Monocrystalline microwires of silver are produced by means of a novel casting process that combines precise mold production by silicon microfabrication with molten metal pressure infiltration. The wires have a shape amenable to tensile testing and a diamet ...

Scintillators play a key role in the detection chain of several applications which rely on the use of ionizing radiation, and it is often mandatory to extract and detect the generated scintillation light as efficiently as possible. Typical inorganic scinti ...

Niobium nitride (NbN) is a particularly promising material for quantum technology applications, as it shows the degree of reproducibility necessary for large-scale superconducting circuits. We demonstrate that resonators based on NbN thin films present a o ...

An ultrahigh-impedance superconducting switch could be used to integrate superconducting systems and CMOS control circuitry. ...

In open quantum systems, dissipative phase transitions (DPTs) emerge from the interplay between unitary evolution, drive, and dissipation. While second-order DPTs have been predominantly investigated theoretically, first-order DPTs have been observed in si ...
