Our work in superconducting and quantum electronics.

We develop design tools and provide engineering services for superconducting and quantum electronics. Our work brings together physical layouts, circuit models and the electrical questions that need to be answered during design.

SUN Magnetics (Pty) Ltd was incorporated in 2015 as a spin-off from Stellenbosch University, South Africa, to provide integrated-circuit parameter extraction and layout verification for the superconductor and quantum electronics industries.

Research behind the tools.

InductEx® has been used in adiabatic quantum-flux-parametron (AQFP) design and SQUID sensor work, including magnetometers and gradiometers. The linked AQFP conference contribution provides one example of that research background.

The JoSIM author repository links the open-source simulator and its paper. That work provides the research background to the simulator and should be distinguished from the current commercial JoSIM®-Pro interface.

Research and funding acknowledgements

The development of InductEx® has been supported financially in part by the South African National Research Foundation, grant numbers 69006, 78789 and 93586, with additions developed under contracts W911NF14-C-0089 and W911NF-17-1-0120 with the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA).

These acknowledgements refer to historical research and funding.
