Abstract
The noise and signal parameters of several types of RF amplifiers based on different SQUIDs with integrated and hybrid input coils were studied. A new type of multiloop DC SQUID with an integrated input coil and extremely low stray capacitances was designed. The inductance of a four-loop SQUID was 100 pH, the input coil inductance 1.3 nH, and mutual inductance 300 pH. The tuned integrated four-loop amplifier at 420 MHz had a noise temperature lower 0.5 K and a power gain of nearly 20 dB in a 60-MHz bandwidth. For the noise calibration of such amplifiers, SIS junctions were used as a shot noise source, or a cooled attenuator and a room temperature semiconductor noise source were used.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
