Multiple Output-tap Josephson Voltage Standard

NIST Inventors
Samuel P. Benz , Paul Dresselhaus , Alain Rufenacht , Nathan Flowers-Jacobs and Anna Fox
patent description The invention is a method for producing multiple voltage outputs simultaneously with single or multiple Josephson voltage circuits implemented in a single cryogenic system. The output voltages can be of fixed ratio, independently programmable, or frequency/phase locked for ac

Superconducting Waveform Synthesizer

NIST Inventors
Samuel P. Benz , Manuel Castellanos Beltran , Paul Dresselhaus and Pete Hopkins
Patent Description NIST has invented a pulse quantizer that uses arrays of one or more Josephson junctions to create a pulse voltage output that is immune to differential pulse timing shifts. When the output pulse patterns are used to encode a waveform, for example, the waveform will be free from
