Abstract

Abstract Disclosure is made of a film cryotron comprising a super-conductive ground plane and two superconductive electrodes arranged on said ground plane. The ground plane and electrodes are all insulated from one another. The electrodes are interconnected by an elongated distributed Josephson junction and have input lines and a control line arranged along the Josephson junction and above one of the electrodes. The electrode under the control line is shaped as a strip extending along the Josephson junction. The input line is connected to this electrode at a point spaced from the points at which the control line intersects the boundaries of this electrode and from the ends of the junction at a distance which is greater than the width of said electrode and the depth of the magnetic field penetration into the junction. At the point of connection to the electrode, the input line has a width which is less than that of the electrode.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 153 words
A film cryotron comprising: a superconductive ground plane; a first superconductive electrode arranged on said ground plane and insulated therefrom; a second superconductive electrode arranged on said ground plane and insulated therefrom; an elongated distributed Josephson junction interconnecting said electrodes; as least the first electrode being shaped as a strip extending along the Josephson junction; a control line extending along the Josephson junction above said first electrode; an input line connected to said second electrode; an input line connected to said first electrode at a portion which is spaced from the points of intersection between said control line and the boundaries of said first electrode and from the ends of said junction by a distance which is greater than the width of said first electrode and the depth of penetration of the magnetic field into said junction, said input line having a width which is less than the width of said first electrode.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 153 words
A film cryotron comprising: a superconductive ground plane; a first superconductive electrode arranged on said ground plane and insulated therefrom; a second superconductive electrode arranged on said ground plane and insulated therefrom; an elongated distributed Josephson junction interconnecting said electrodes; as least the first electrode being shaped as a strip extending along the Josephson junction; a control line extending along the Josephson junction above said first electrode; an input line connected to said second electrode; an input line connected to said first electrode at a portion which is spaced from the points of intersection between said control line and the boundaries of said first electrode and from the ends of said junction by a distance which is greater than the width of said first electrode and the depth of penetration of the magnetic field into said junction, said input line having a width which is less than the width of said first electrode.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 39 words
A film cryotron as claimed in claim 1, further comprising at least one more input line connected to said first electrode, which is similar to said input line connected to said first electtode and placed in parallel with it.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 74 words
A film cryotron as claimed in claim 1, wherein said first electrode has widening portions between the points at which said control intersects the boundaries of said first electrode and the point of connection of said input line to said first electrode the size of said widening portions along said first electrode being not less than the depth of penetration of the magnetic field into said junction and the width of said first electrode.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 74 words
A film cryotron as claimed in claim 2, wherein said first electrode has widening portions between the points at which said control line intersects the boundaries of said first electrode and the point of connection of said input line to said first, the size of said widening portions along said first electrode being not less than the depth of penetration of the magnetic field into said junction and the width of said first electrode.
