Funded Activity Summary

Development of superconducting leads with ultra-low thermal conductivity for cryoelectronic applications. Superconducting systems are revolutionary technologies that have the potential to make a significant impact on society. The development of the new technology of superconducting wiring, which would effectively eliminate heat generation and its transfer to the cryogenic electronics, and its subsequent employment will enable superconductive electronics to become price competitive, significantly outperforming conventional systems. The establishment of this new frontier technology of heat-switch current leads will benefit Australian industries and have a dramatic impact in the future on the field of cryogenic quantum electronics (such as quantum computing), which is currently under profound exploration in Australia.
