A gate-tunable graphene Josephson parametric amplifier

Résumé

With a large portfolio of elemental quantum components, superconducting quantum circuits have contributed to dramatic advances in microwave quantum optics. Of these elements, quantum-limited parametric amplifiers have proven to be essential for low noise readout of quantum systems whose energy range is intrinsically low (tens of $\mu$eV ). They are also used to generate non classical states of light that can be a resource for quantum enhanced detection. Superconducting parametric amplifiers, like quantum bits, typically utilize a Josephson junction as a source of magnetically tunable and dissipation-free nonlinearity. In recent years, efforts have been made to introduce semiconductor weak links as electrically tunable nonlinear elements, with demonstrations of microwave resonators and quantum bits using semiconductor nanowires, a two dimensional electron gas, carbon nanotubes and graphene. However, given the challenge of balancing nonlinearity, dissipation, participation, and energy scale, parametric amplifiers have not yet been implemented with a semiconductor weak link. Here we demonstrate a parametric amplifier leveraging a graphene Josephson junction and show that its working frequency is widely tunable with a gate voltage. We report gain exceeding 20 dB and noise performance close to the standard quantum limit. Our results complete the toolset for electrically tunable superconducting quantum circuits and offer new opportunities for the development of quantum technologies such as quantum computing, quantum sensing and fundamental science.
