Abstract

We investigate the self-emissions from serial high-temperature superconductor bicrystal Josephson junction arrays embedded in a quasi-optical resonator. A bicrystal substrate is used as a dielectric resonator antenna, which increases the coupling strength between the junction array and the electromagnetic (EM) wave. Both three-dimension (3D) electromagnetic simulations and experiments are performed. Strong off-chip radiations are measured from the junction array at 78 GHz and 78 K. The proposed method and the experimental results are important for millimeter wave applications in junction arrays.
