Fiber Optic Detection of Magnetic Flux Quantum Pulses using Resonator-Enhanced Modulation
Abstract
Superconducting systems offer unique processing capabilities, but must be immersed in a cryogenic environment for proper operation. Here, we investigate a photonic link designed to convert superconducting magnetic flux quanta (MFQ) into optical signals, which can be transferred out of a cryogenic environment for proper read-out without significant heat loss. We are investigating both resonant-enhanced modulation techniques and fiber nonlinearities for signal amplification and retrieval.
