• Abstract: In this article we present an experimental study of microwave resonators made out of Josephson junctions. The junctions are embedded in a transmission line geometry so that they increase the inductance per length for the line. By comparing two devices with different input/output coupling strengths, we show that the coupling capacitors, however, add a significant amount to the total capacitance of the resonator. This makes the resonators with high coupling capacitance to act rather as lumped element resonators with inductance from the junctions and capacitance from the end sections. Based on a circuit analysis, we show that the input and output couplings of the resonator are limited to a maximum value of $\omega_r Z_0 /4 Z_r$ where $\omega_r$ is the resonance frequency and $Z_0$ and $Z_r$ are the characteristic impedances of the input/output lines and the resonator respectively.

  We demonstrate a simple and versatile resonator design based on a short strip of a typical coplanar waveguide shorted at one end to the ground and shunted at the other end with a large parallel-plate capacitor. We conclude that these tadpole resonators are well suited for applications requiring low frequency and low charactersitic impedance while maintaining a small footprint on chip.

• Tunneling of fluxons via a Josephson resonant level [0.0]
  A superconducting loop can be coherently coupled by quantum phase slips occurring at a weak link such as a Josephson junction. We analyze this scenario by computing the coupling between fluxons as the level is brought into resonance with the superconducting condensate. These findings can inform experiments on bifluxon qubits as well as the design of novel types of protected qubits.

• Parametric amplification via superconducting contacts in a Ka band niobium pillbox cavity [0.0]
  Superconducting parametric amplifiers are commonly fabricated using planar transmission lines with a non-linear inductance provided by either Josephson junctions or the intrinsic kinetic inductance of the thin film. Banys et al. reported non-linear behaviour in a niobium pillbox cavity, hypothesising that below Tc, the pair iris-bulk resonator would act as a superconducting contact surface. This work investigates this effect further by applying Keysight Technologies' Advanced Design System to simulate the cavity.

• Superconducting coupler with exponentially large on-off ratio [68.8204255655161]
  Tunable two-qubit couplers offer an avenue to mitigate errors in multiqubit superconducting quantum processors. Most couplers operate in a narrow frequency band and target specific couplings, such as the spurious $ZZ$ interaction. We introduce a superconducting coupler that alleviates these limitations by suppressing all two-qubit interactions with an exponentially large on-off ratio.

  We report on the switching dynamics of both single and coupled VO2-based oscillators, with resistive and capacitive coupling, and explore the capability of their application in neural networks. For the resistive coupling, it is shown that synchronization takes place at a certain value of the coupling resistance, though it is unstable and a synchronization failure occurs periodically. For the capacitive coupling, two synchronization modes, with weak and strong coupling, are found. The transition between these modes is accompanied by chaotic oscillations.
