Abstract

We develop a fast magnetic Josephson junction (MJJ)—a superconducting ferromagnetic device for a scalable high-density cryogenic memory compatible in speed and fabrication with energy-efficient single flux quantum (SFQ) circuits. We present experimental results for superconductor-insulator-ferromagnet-superconductor (SIFS) MJJs with high characteristic voltage IcRn of >700 μV proving their applicability for superconducting circuits. By applying magnetic field pulses, the device can be switched between MJJ logic states. The MJJ IcRn product is only ∼30% lower than that of conventional junction co-produced in the same process, allowing for integration of MJJ-based and SIS-based ultra-fast digital SFQ circuits operating at tens of gigahertz.
