Phase dynamics has been measured in a driven mesoscopic Josephson oscillator where the resonance is tuned either by magnetic flux or by gate charge modulation of the Josephson inductance. Phenomena are analyzed in terms of a phase particle picture, and by numerical circuit simulations. An analogy to switching of a DC-biased junction into voltage state is discussed. Operation principle of the recently demonstrated Inductive Single-Electron transistor (L-SET) based on the driven oscillator is reviewed. The obtained charge sensitivity implies that a performance comparable to the best rf-SETs has already been reached with the novel device.

We demonstrate a sensitive method of charge detection based on radio-frequency readout of the Josephson inductance of a superconducting single-electron transistor. Charge sensitivity $1.4 times 10^{-4}e/sqrt{Hz}$, limited by preamplifier, is achieved
in an operation mode which takes advantage of the nonlinearity of the Josephson potential. Owing to reactive readout, our setup has more than two orders of magnitude lower dissipation than the existing method of radio-frequency electrometry. With an optimized sample, we expect uncoupled energy sensitivity below $hbar$ in the same experimental scheme.
We study theoretically dynamics in a Josephson junction coupled to a mechanical resonator looking at the signatures of the resonance in d.c. electrical response of the junction. Such a system can be realized experimentally as a suspended ultra-clean
carbon nanotube brought in contact with two superconducting leads. A nearby gate electrode can be used to tune the junction parameters and to excite mechanical motion. We augment theoretical estimations with the values of setup parameters measured in the samples fabricated. We show that charging effects in the junction give rise to a mechanical force that depends on the superconducting phase difference. The force can excite the resonant mode provided the superconducting current in the junction has oscillating components with a frequency matching the resonant frequency of the mechanical resonator. We develop a model that encompasses the coupling of electrical and mechanical dynamics. We compute the mechanical response (the effect of mechanical motion) in the regime of phase bias and d.c. voltage bias. We thoroughly investigate the regime of combined a.c. and d.c. bias where Shapiro steps are developed and reveal several distinct regimes characteristic for this effect. Our results can be immediately applied in the context of experimental detection of the mechanical motion in realistic superconducting nano-mechanical devices.
Motivated by recent experiments, we study theoretically the full counting statistics of radiation emitted below the threshold of parametric resonance in a Josephson junction circuit. In contrast to most optical systems, a significant part of emitted
radiation can be collected and converted to an output signal. This permits studying the correlations of the radiation. To quantify the correlations, we derive a closed expression for full counting statistics in the limit of long measurement times. We demonstrate that the statistics can be interpreted in terms of uncorrelated bursts each encompassing 2N photons, this accounts for the bunching of the photon pairs produced in course of the parametric resonance. We present the details of the burst rates. In addition, we study the time correlations within the bursts and discuss experimental signatures of the statistics deriving the frequency-resolved cross-correlations.
We propose a scheme to implement a tunable, wide frequency-band dissipative environment using a double chain of Josephson junctions. The two parallel chains consist of identical SQUIDs, with magnetic-flux tunable inductance, coupled to each other at
each node via a capacitance much larger than the junction capacitance. Thanks to this capacitive coupling, the system sustains electromagnetic modes with a wide frequency dispersion. The internal quality factor of the modes is maintained as high as possible, and the damping is introduced by a uniform coupling of the modes to a transmission line, itself connected to an amplification and readout circuit. For sufficiently long chains, containing several thousands of junctions, the resulting admittance is a smooth function versus frequency in the microwave domain, and its effective dissipation can be continuously monitored by recording the emitted radiation in the transmission line. We show that by varying in-situ the SQUIDs inductance, the double chain can operate as tunable ohmic resistor in a frequency band spanning up to one GHz, with a resistance that can be swept through values comparable to the resistance quantum R_q = (h/4e^2) ~ 6.5 k{Omega}. We argue that the circuit complexity is within reach using current Josephson junction technology.
A cavity perturbation technique is used to study the microwave response of the organic superconductor k-(BEDT-TTF)2Cu(NCS)2. Observation of a Josephson plasma resonance, below Tc (approx. 10 K), enables investigation of the vortex structure within th
e mixed state of this highly anisotropic, type-II, superconductor. Contrary to previous assumptions, frequency dependent studies (28 - 153 GHz) indicate that the squared plasma frequency depends exponentially on the magnetic field strength. Such behavior has been predicted for a weakly pinned quasi-two-dimensional vortex lattice [Bulaevskii et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 74, 801 (1995)], but has not so far been observed experimentally. Our data also suggests a transition in the vortex structure near the irreversibility line not previously reported for an organic superconductor using this technique.
