摘要
A single flux quantum (SFQ) circuit to measure quantized energy levels in a Josephson junction has been proposed and implemented, which allows us to perform high-speed and low-noise measurements of the escape rate in Josephson junctions. By using this technique, the measurement of escape rate has been carried out at 4.2 K, the temperature three times higher than the crossover temperature. The test results show periodic dependence of the escape rate on the junction bias current, which is caused by the energy quantization effect in the Josephson junction.
