Resonant and Off-Resonant Microwave Signal Manipulation in Coupled Resonant and off-resonant microwave signal manipulation in coupled superconducting resonators 1, 2, 1 1 1 1, Mathieu Pierre, ∗ Sankar Raman Sathyamoorthy, Ida-Maria Svensson, G¨oranJohansson, and Per Delsing y 1Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience (MC2), Chalmers University of Technology, SE-412 96 G¨oteborg, Sweden 2Laboratoire National des Champs Magn´etiquesIntenses (LNCMI), Universit´ede Toulouse, INSA, CNRS UPR 3228, EMFL, FR-31400 Toulouse, France We present an experimental demonstration as well as a theoretical model of an integrated circuit designed for the manipulation of a microwave field down to the single-photon level. The device is made of a superconducting resonator coupled to a transmission line via a second frequency-tunable resonator. The tunable resonator can be used as a tunable coupler between the fixed resonator and the transmission line. Moreover, the manipulation of the microwave field between the two resonators is possible. In particular, we demonstrate the swapping of the field from one resonator to the other by pulsing the frequency detuning between the two resonators. The behavior of the system, which determines how the device can be operated, is analyzed as a function of one key parameter of the system, the damping ratio of the coupled resonators. We show a good agreement between experiments and simulations, realized by solving a set of coupled differential equations. In quantum technology the interaction between quan- so far28.

  • Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and Its Application in Condensed Matter Physics
    Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and Its Application in Condensed Matter Physics Kangbo Hao 1. Introduction Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) is a physics phenomenon first observed by Isidor Rabi in 1938. [1] Since then, the NMR spectroscopy has been applied in a wide range of areas such as physics, chemistry, and medical examination. In this paper, I want to briefly discuss about the theory of NMR spectroscopy and its recent application in condensed matter physics. 2. Principles of NMR NMR occurs when some certain nuclei are in a static magnetic field and another oscillation magnetic field. Assuming a nucleus has a spin angular momentum 퐼⃗ = ℏ푚퐼, then its magnetic moment 휇⃗ is 휇⃗ = 훾퐼⃗ (1) The 훾 here is the gyromagnetic ratio, which depends on the property of the nucleus. If we put such a nucleus in a static magnetic field 퐵⃗⃗0, then the magnetic moment of this nuclei will process about this magnetic field. Therefore we have, [2] [3] 푑퐼⃗ 1 푑휇⃗⃗⃗ 휏⃗ = 휇⃗ × 퐵⃗⃗ = = (2) 0 푑푥 훾 푑푥 From this semiclassical picture, we can easily derive that the precession frequency 휔0 (which is called the Larmor angular frequency) is 휔0 = 훾퐵0 (3) Then, if another small oscillating magnetic field is added to the plane perpendicular to 퐵⃗⃗0, then the total magnetic field is (Assuming 퐵⃗⃗0 is in 푧̂ direction) 퐵⃗⃗ = 퐵0푧̂ + 퐵1(cos(휔푡) 푥̂ + sin(휔푡) 푦̂) (4) If we choose a frame (푥̂′, 푦̂′, 푧̂′ = 푧̂) rotating with the oscillating magnetic field, then the effective magnetic field in this frame is 휔 퐵̂ = (퐵 − ) 푧̂ + 퐵 푥̂′ (5) 푒푓푓 0 훾 1 As a result, at 휔 = 훾퐵0, which is the resonant frequency, the 푧̂ component will vanish, and thus the spin angular momentum will precess about 퐵⃗⃗1 instead.

This ungraded exercise allows students to learn about oscilloscopes and function generators. Students measure digital and analog signals of different frequencies and amplitudes, explore how triggering works, and learn about the signal averaging and analysis features of digital scopes. They also explore the consequences of finite input impedance of the scope and and output impedance of the generator. List 1 Electron Charge and Boltzmann Constants from Johnson Noise and Shot Noise Mea- surements. Because electronic noise is an intrinsic characteristic of electronic components and circuits, it is related to fundamental constants and can be used to measure them. The Johnson (thermal) noise across a resistor is amplified and measured at both room temperature and liquid nitrogen temperature for a series of different resistances. The amplifier contribution to the mea- sured noise is subtracted out and the dependence of the noise voltage on the value of the resistance leads to the value of the Boltzmann constant kB. In shot noise, a series of different currents are passed through a vacuum diode and the RMS noise across a load resistor is measured at each current. Since the current is carried by electron-size charges, the shot noise measurements contain information about the magnitude of the elementary charge e. The experiment also introduces the concept of “noise figure” of an amplifier and gives students experience with a FFT signal analyzer. Hall Effect in Conductors and Semiconductors.

  • Resonance Beyond Frequency-Matching
    Resonance Beyond Frequency-Matching Zhenyu Wang (王振宇)1, Mingzhe Li (李明哲)1,2, & Ruifang Wang (王瑞方)1,2* 1 Department of Physics, Xiamen University, Xiamen 361005, China. 2 Institute of Theoretical Physics and Astrophysics, Xiamen University, Xiamen 361005, China. *Corresponding author. [email protected] Resonance, defined as the oscillation of a system when the temporal frequency of an external stimulus matches a natural frequency of the system, is important in both fundamental physics and applied disciplines. However, the spatial character of oscillation is not considered in the definition of resonance. In this work, we reveal the creation of spatial resonance when the stimulus matches the space pattern of a normal mode in an oscillating system. The complete resonance, which we call multidimensional resonance, is a combination of both the spatial and the conventionally defined (temporal) resonance and can be several orders of magnitude stronger than the temporal resonance alone. We further elucidate that the spin wave produced by multidimensional resonance drives considerably faster reversal of the vortex core in a magnetic nanodisk. Our findings provide insight into the nature of wave dynamics and open the door to novel applications. I. INTRODUCTION Resonance is a universal property of oscillation in both classical and quantum physics[1,2]. Resonance occurs at a wide range of scales, from subatomic particles[2,3] to astronomical objects[4]. A thorough understanding of resonance is therefore crucial for both fundamental research[4-8] and numerous related applications[9-12]. The simplest resonance system is composed of one oscillating element, for instance, a pendulum. Such a simple system features a single inherent resonance frequency.

Based on the target and resonance frequencies of the system, resonance and non-resonance models were designed and fabricated. With a lateral size less than half the wavelength, the model had stacked structures of lossy acoustic windows, polyvinylidene difluoride, and lead zirconate titanate-5A. The structures of both models were identical, except that the resonance model had steel backing material to adjust the center frequency. Both models were analyzed in the frequency and time domains, and the effectiveness of the absorbers was compared at the target and off-target frequencies. Both models were fabricated and acoustically and electrically characterized. Their reflection reduction ratios were evaluated in the quasi-continuous-wave and time-transient modes. Keywords: resonance model; non-resonance model; piezoelectric material 1. Introduction Piezoelectric transducers are used in various fields, such as nondestructive evaluation, image processing, acoustic signal detection, and energy harvesting [1–4].

  • The Harmonic Oscillator
    Appendix A The Harmonic Oscillator Properties of the harmonic oscillator arise so often throughout this book that it seemed best to treat the mathematics involved in a separate Appendix. A.1 Simple Harmonic Oscillator The harmonic oscillator equation dates to the time of Newton and Hooke. It follows by combining Newton’s Law of motion (F = Ma, where F is the force on a mass M and a is its acceleration) and Hooke’s Law (which states that the restoring force from a compressed or extended spring is proportional to the displacement from equilibrium and in the opposite direction: thus, FSpring =−Kx, where K is the spring constant) (Fig. A.1). Taking x = 0 as the equilibrium position and letting the force from the spring act on the mass: d2x M + Kx = 0. (A.1) dt2 2 = Dividing by the mass and defining ω0 K/M, the equation becomes d2x + ω2x = 0.
