Abstract
Stacked double and triple Josephson junctions with NbN electrodes and TiNx barriers were fabricated for the next generation 10 V programmable Josephson voltage standard. Because of the difficulties in the growth of uniform junctions in the stack with a constant barrier thickness, a stack with carefully engineered thicknesses was grown which exhibited uniform junction properties. The junction arrays on these chips were biased with microwave power at 16 GHz resulting in constant voltage steps consistent with the total number of junctions in the array, including the multiple junctions in the stacks. The steps had a current range greater than 1 mA at 4.2 K.Citation
