Nb/Al-AlOx/Nb Josephson junctions are widely used in superconducting quantum interference devices and rapid single flux (RSFQ) circuits. Very large-scale RSFQ integration often has a strict requirement on wafer-scale junction qualities.

We have developed a 6-kA/cm superconducting integrated circuit fabrication process toward large-scale single flux quantum digital circuits. To evaluate the reliability and controllability, set of control monitors (PCMs) for monitoring design parameters was designed tested. Fabrication parameters, example, film thicknesses etched depths layers, were measured by testing specific patterns during fabrication. Design such as critical current density J <sub...

Superconducting single flux quantum (SFQ) circuits have been shown to offer huge advantages that are ideal for high performance computing applications. These can operate at very frequencies (tens of GHz) but consume low power (from nanowatts microwatts per gate). Energy-efficient SFQ (ERSFQ) circuits, evolved from traditional rapid (RSFQ) were invented with the goal elimination static dissipation. When compared RSFQ ERSFQ require a new biasing network includes Josephson junction(s),...
