摘要:
A superconducting Josephson junction, circuit and method of manufacture is provided for maintaining optimal chemical and structural compositions at the interface region between an insulating barrier (12) and a pair of superconductor electrodes (14) and (16). Each superconductor electrode of the Josephson junction comprises a chemical selected from the group consisting of Ba1-xKxBiO3 and Ba1-xRbxBiO3. In addition, the insulating barrier (12), formed between the electrode pair (14) and (16), is made of a chemical compound including an alkali element. The alkali element within the barrier region serves to eliminate or reduce ion migration from the BKBO or BRBO superconducting electrodes. The alkali element in the barrier (12) as well as the superconductor electrodes (14) and (16) also provides good structural matching at the barrier-electrode interface regions. As a result of the chemical and structural matching between the superconductor electrodes and the barrier, an SIS Josephson tunnel junction and integrated circuit is formed having high quality histeretic properties.
摘要:
The instant article of manufacture is made by applying optical energy to one or more layers of nanoparticulate materials under predetermined conditions to produce a nanostructure. The nanostructure has layers of optically fused nanoparticles including a predetermined pore density, a predetermined pore size, or both. The predetermined conditions for applying the optical energy may include a predetermined voltage, a predetermined duration, a predetermined power density, or combinations thereof.
摘要:
By using a large area cathode, an electron source can be made that can irradiate a large area more uniformly and more efficiently than currently available devices. The electron emitter can be a carbon film cold cathode, a microtip or some other emitter. It can be patterned. The cathode can be assembled with electrodes for scanning the electron source.
