Focused ion beam (FIB) technology has been used to fabricate miniature Nb DC SQUIDs which incorporate resistively-shunted microbridge junctions and a central loop with a hole diameter ranging from 1058 nm to 50 nm. The smallest device, with a 50 nm hole diameter, has a white flux noise level of 2.6 microphy_{0}/Hz^{0.5} at 10^{4} Hz. The scaling of the flux noise properties and focusing effect of the SQUID with the hole size were examined. The observed low-frequency flux noise of different devices were compared with the contribution due to the spin fluctuation of defects during FIB processing and the thermally activated flux hopping in the SQUID washer.
We present results on ultra low noise YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-delta}$ nano Superconducting QUantum Interference Devices (nanoSQUIDs). To realize such devices, we implemented high quality YBCO nanowires, working as weak links between two electrodes. We obs
We have performed flux noise and AC-susceptibility measurements on two 400 nm thick MgB$_2$ films. Both measurement techniques give information about the vortex dynamics in the sample, and hence the superconducting transition, and can be linked to ea
We have studied decoherence in a system where two Josephson-junction flux qubits share a part of their superconducting loops and are inductively coupled. By tuning the flux bias condition, we control the sensitivities of the energy levels to flux noi
We present a new method to measure 1/f noise in Josephson quantum bits (qubits) that yields low-frequency spectra below 1Hz. Comparison of noise taken at positive and negative bias of a phase qubit shows the dominant noise source to be flux noise and
We present the analysis of the mean switching time and its standard deviation of an overdamped Josephson junction, driven by a direct current and a single flux quantum (SFQ) pulse. The performed analysis allows to find the optimal value of the bias c
