Transfer function of an asymmetric superconducting Gauss neuron.
The Gauss neuron is a nonlinear signal converter, whose transfer function (TF) is described by the derivative of some sigmoidal dependence. A superconducting Gauss neuron can be implemented as a two-junction interferometer shunted symmetrically by an additional inductance. This work analyzes three cases of asymmetry that can occur in the experimental samples of Gauss neurons, that is, unequal critical currents of the interferometer's Josephson junctions, asymmetric inductive shunting, and asymmetry of the input signal supply. We illustrate the modifications in equations and the shape of the TF compared to the symmetric case. The analysis performed provides an explanation for the key features observed in a previously conducted experiment.
期刊介绍:
The Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology is an international, peer-reviewed, Open Access journal. It provides a unique platform for rapid publication without any charges (free for author and reader) – Platinum Open Access. The content is freely accessible 365 days a year to any user worldwide. Articles are available online immediately upon publication and are publicly archived in all major repositories. In addition, it provides a platform for publishing thematic issues (theme-based collections of articles) on topical issues in nanoscience and nanotechnology.
The journal is published and completely funded by the Beilstein-Institut, a non-profit foundation located in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. The editor-in-chief is Professor Thomas Schimmel – Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. He is supported by more than 20 associate editors who are responsible for a particular subject area within the scope of the journal.
