Description

Our research team develops superconducting analog, digital and mixed signal circuits to address critical measurement challenges in radio-frequency communications and both energy-efficient and quantum computing. We exploit the quantum-behavior of Josephson junctions to generate high-purity, quantum-accurate, ac waveform standards at frequencies up to 200 GHz. One approach incorporates on-chip circuits that utilize single-flux-quantum (SFQ) circuits, a technology that has demonstrated circuit speeds up to 700 GHz and is currently u...

Grantor Contact InformationSamuel P. Benz, Phone: 303.497.5258Grantor Emailbenz@boulder.nist.govOther Grantor InformationThe NRC Research Associateship Programs (RAP) are prestigious postdoctoral and senior research awards designed to provide promising scientists and engineers with high-quality research opportunities at federal laboratories and affiliated institutions. Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
