An artificial neuron using superconducting devices, so-called double SQUID, applicable to the extended backpropagation learning algorism is studied. It is shown that the tunable slope of the sigmoid function required in the algorism can be achieved under the fixed temperature by externally applied magnetic fields threading the ring with two Josephson junctions in the double SQUID.

An artificial neuron using superconducting devices, so-called rf SQUID, working at the quantum-mechanical domain is studied. It is shown that quantum rf SQUID regarded as flux qubit can act as an artificial neuron with sigmoid function generated by coherent quantum-mechanical transitions between wells in double well potential representing rf SQUID.

Nb/InAs-nanowire Josephson junctions are fabricated in situ by a special shadow evaporation scheme for the superconducting Nb electrode. The junctions are interesting candidates for superconducting quantum circuits requiring large magnetic fields.

ABSTRACTWe review recent work on the dynamical behavior of coupled resistively-shunted Josephson junctions, with emphasis on our own calculations. We present a model which allows for the inclusion of finite temperature, disorder, d.c. and a. c. applied currents, and applied magnetic fields. We discuss applications to (a) calculations of critical currents and IV characteristics; (b) harmonic generation and microwave absorption by finite clusters of Josephson junctions; (c) critical energies for vortex depinning; and (d) quantized voltage plateaus in arrays subjected to combined d.c. and a. c. currents. Possible connections to the behavior of granular high-temperature superconductors are briefly discussed.

We investigate critical current (Ic) modulation of stacked Josephson junctions (SJJs) dc superconducting quantum interference device ( dc SQUID) on a Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8+δ ( Bi -2212) whisker. A coupled SJJs with a completely perforated hole of 0.1 μ m × 0.2 μ m were fabricated by using a 3-D focused-ion-beam (FIB) etching method. Those dc SQUIDs exhibited uniform multi-branch structures and clearly oscillated critical current under external magnetic fields (He). With applying He, the clear periodic modulation patterns of Ic are obtained and well fitted to the calculated value from the loop area of 0.02 μm2.
