Abstract:

Disclosed herein are embodiments including electrical structures that includes a first cell, a first inductor, a first resistor, and a first shunted Josephson junction. The first inductor is connected in series with the first shunted Josephson junction at a first terminal end of the first inductor and a second terminal end of the first inductor is connected to a feed point of the first cell being powered. A first end of the first resistor having connected to ground and a second end being connected to the first shunted Josephson junction at a terminal of the first shunted Josephson junction that is not connected to the first inductor. A source of an electrical current source that is external to the first cell is connected to the first shunted junction and the first resistor at a common point.
