  2. 1. Antenna Integrated Superconducting Mixers

    Author : Hans Ekström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tapered slotline antenna; mixer; double dipole antenna; superconducting; hot electron; receiver; Niobium; bolometer; trilayer junction; edge junction; Niobium Nitride; SIS;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the prospects of some different superconducting mixers integrated with planar antennas for the millimeter and submillimeter regime. Two kinds of Superconductor/Insulator/Superconductor (SIS) tunnel junctions for use in mixers have been fabricated; Nb/PbBi edge junctions and Nb trilayer junctions. READ MORE

  4. 2. Dissipative Processes in Superconducting Diffusive Tunnel Junctions

    Author : Andrey Vasenko; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Josephson effect; Andreev bound states; nonequilibrium superconductivity; superconducting junctions; transport processes; tunneling; diffusive superconductors;

    Abstract : A central subject of this thesis is the dissipative current transport in superconducting tunnel junctions with diffusive electrodes. Tunnel current transport in superconducting junctions is a classical topic of interest and research. READ MORE

    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; heat transport; heat conductance; scattering theory; superconducting hybrid devices; conductance fluctuations; phase dependent heat currents;

    Abstract : The operation of nanoscale devices at low temperatures is highly sensitive to heating effects. This motivates current research on controlling heat currents in these devices. READ MORE

  7. 5. Theory of Electron Transport in Superconducting Heterostructures

    Author : Magnus Hurd; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis deals theoretically with electron transport in superconducting heterostructures. Depending on the system I use different theoretical approaches. The thesis contains an introduction followed by four research papers (Papers I-IV). The introduction gives the background of the work in Papers I-IV. READ MORE
