    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an estimating method of a barrier layer of a Josephson element wherein characteristic of an oxide superconductor Josephson element manufactured by an IEJ method can be made uniform. SOLUTION: When a ramp edge type or a laminated type Josephson element is manufactured, a substrate 20 for inspection which has a superconductor film 21 is prepared. The substrate 20 is arranged in the vicinity of a substrate for element formation, and an amorphous layer forming process and an annealing process are performed to the substrates simultaneously, and barrier layers 22 are formed. Crystallinity of the barrier layer of the substrate 20 is examined by RHEED or LEED, and the crystallinity of the barrier layer of the substrate for element formation is estimated by using the result of the examination.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a magnetic-shielded transformer which encloses a magnetic path with a bulk high temperature superconductor to lessen the problems of the flux leakage, energy loss due to core loss and efficiency reduction. SOLUTION: A magnetic path of a flux resulting between a primary coil and a secondary coil is enclosed with a bulk high temperature superconductor which is composed of a plurality of clad bulk high temperature superconductors. The bulk high temperature superconductor is inserted between the primary coil and the secondary coil to block other magnetic paths from being formed, than the magnetic path of that flux. The magnetic path of that flux is an air core or a ferromagnetic core.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable high-speed operation by generating on a signal line a pulse which is delayed an integral multiple of a clock behind an input signal pulse by a circuit block, composed of a shunt and a delay unit and counting pulses which are generated in a time, which is an integral multiple of the clock by a circuit block composed of a confluence unit and a counter. SOLUTION: Shunts 114 to 116, consisting of Josephson junctions and inductors, receive input signal pulses and shunt them to signal lines 117 to 119 and delay units 111 to 113. Then a 1st circuit block 11 generate on signal lines 117 to 1110 delayed pulses, which are as many as a decimation factor, e.g. '4'. In a 2nd circuit block, confluence units 122 to 124, consisting of Josephson junctions and inductors count and send delay pulses which are as many as the decimation factor '4' to a counter 121. The counter 121 is composed of a series connection of toggle flip-flops and holds its count result in cycles, which are 1/4 as long as the clock frequency.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a superconducting junction which can be operated at a fast speed by low energy by making an effective Mc Cumber coefficient which depends on electrostatic capacity of a capacitor part larger than a specified value and making an operating current flowing to a junction part during generation of a voltage in a junction part larger than a minimum current value which can maintain a voltage. SOLUTION: In a latch-type circuit, a high temperature superconducting junction can provide hysterisis to its I-V characteristic by connecting a capacitor part Cs to a junction part J1 in parallel. Furthermore, a Mc Cumber coefficient βc is adjusted and the relation between an operating current Iop flowing to the junction part J during generation of a voltage of the junction part J and a minimum current value Imin which can maintain a voltage is also adjusted to surely develop hysterisis. The Mc Camber coefficient βc is featured by hysteresis characteristic of a Josephson junction βc=2πIcCR2/ϕo. Here, Ic is the superconducting current, C is the electrostatic capacity and ϕo is the magnetic flux. When βc>1, hysteresis develops.
