Resonant activation and multi-junction switching characteristics of Bi-2212 intrinsic Josephson junctions

POSTER

Abstract

Bi-2212 intrinsic Josephson junctions (IJJs) are expected to be applied to a superconductive qubit. We have studied quantum behavior of two different types of Bi-2212 IJJs, one is fabricated by FIB etching [2,3] and the other is fabricated by Double Side Etching Method (DSEM)[4]. In this report, we show their multi-junction switching properties with or without microwave irradiation. The experimental results indicate that the couplings between junctions change according to the sample fabrication process. [1] K.Inomata et al., Phys. Rev.
