Abstract

A traveling wave superconducting parametric amplifier is provided. The traveling wave superconducting parametric amplifier includes a chain of superconducting elements having a nonlinear kinetic inductance connected in series, said superconducting elements being deposited on a substrate. The traveling wave superconducting parametric amplifier also includes a dielectric layer of sub-micrometer thickness deposited on the substrate and covering said superconducting elements, and a conductive layer forming a ground plane deposited on top of the dielectric layer, the superconducting elements and the ground plane forming a microstrip-type transmission line. A method for producing such a traveling wave parametric amplifier is also provided.
