Josephson Aperture

A Josephson Aperture is a specialized device used in superconducting technology, particularly in quantum computing and highly sensitive measurements. It consists of a thin barrier between two superconductors that allows an electrical current to flow without resistance. When a magnetic field is applied, this device can sense extremely small changes in magnetic fields or voltages, enabling precise control and measurement in advanced electronic systems. Essentially, it harnesses unique properties of superconductors to enhance performance in various applications, contributing to innovations in both science and technology.
