Abstract
Magnetic flux concentrating materials are introduced in superconducting moelectronic devices and circuits as a method and means for fabrication of more compact, higher speed superconducting microelectronic devices and circuits.
Claims24
In a method of reducing the circuit area of a superconducting microelectronic circuit which ha a magnetic flux therein, the steps of;
- depositing a superconducting circuit on a substrate, enveloping a portion of said superconducting circuit with a coating of high magnetic permeability material so as to concentrate the magnetic flux of the superconducting circuit.
A superconducting microelectric circuit comprising:
- (a) a substrate;
- (b) a superconducting circuit in the form of a loop deposited on said substrate and having a magnetic flux therein and;
- a high permeability magnetic material completely surrounding a portion of said superconducting loop for the purpose of concentrating the magnetic flux of the superconducting circuit in a smaller area of the superconducting circuit.
