Abstract
At present, microwave transmission lines are characterized by a strong frequency dependence of loss in the subterahertz range. This work is aimed at development, research, and optimization of superconducting integrated circuits designed for matching the impedances of a long Josephson junction oscillator (a so-called “flux-flow oscillator”) and a superconductor–insulator–superconductor (SIS) detector in the subterahertz frequency range. The goal of this study is to improve and approve the numerical calculation methods, which make it possible to describe correctly experimental superconducting structures in a wide frequency range. Numerical calculations of integrated circuits have been performed in order to optimize the topology and parameters of transmission lines. The main parameters of the transmission lines and their influence on the signal propagation are determined. The results of optimization of integrated matching circuits in the range of 450–700 GHz have been experimentally confirmed. Optimization and improvement of transmission lines allow one to design new-generation integrated superconducting detectors and investigate tunnel SIS junctions more thoroughly (including shunted ones) and the properties of heterodyne oscillators based on long Josephson junctions.
期刊介绍：
Technical Physics Letters is a companion journal to Technical Physics and offers rapid publication of developments in theoretical and experimental physics with potential technological applications. Recent emphasis has included many papers on gas lasers and on lasing in semiconductors, as well as many reports on high Tc superconductivity. The excellent coverage of plasma physics seen in the parent journal, Technical Physics, is also present here with quick communication of developments in theoretical and experimental work in all fields with probable technical applications. Topics covered are basic and applied physics; plasma physics; solid state physics; physical electronics; accelerators; microwave electron devices; holography.
