Parametric Microwave Amplification using a Tunable Superconducting Resonator
(University of Waterloo, 2015-09-02)In this Master thesis, I present a theoretical description and experimental measurements of a tunable microwave resonator operated as a parametric amplifier. Superconducting parametric amplifiers have attracted great ... -
Quantum Optoelectronic Detection and Mixing in the Nanowire Superconducting Structure
(University of Waterloo, 2010-01-20)The recent advancement of superconducting nano devices has allowed for making a Superconducting Nanowire Single Photon Detector (SNSPD), whose extraordinary features have strongly motivated the research community to exploit ... -
RF MEMS-Based Frequency Dependent Power Limiters
(University of Waterloo, 2018-04-27)Microwave power limiters are passive devices that are widely used to protect receivers from large interfering signals. Conventional radio frequency (RF) power limiters attenuate both desired and undesired signals in the ...
