Theoretical and numerical analysis of very high harmonic superconducting tunnel junction mixers
We describe a procedure for modeling the nonlinear, quantum-mechanical behavior of very high harmonic superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) mixers. A typical mixer is pumped by a strong microwave source at 10-15 GHz, which causes high-harmonic (20-40) currents to flow, any one of which can b...
