Abstract

Weak microwave signals and their amplification are gaining a great interest for numerous applications, especially in quantum-based applications. Lowest possible noise is ideal for quantum technologies. At present, quantum-limited microwave amplification is done through various types of amplifiers such as high-electron mobility transistors (HEMT), superconductor-based amplifiers, and MASER (microwave amplification by stimulated emission of radiation)-based amplifiers. Each technique has its unique advantages and limitations. In this chapter, current progress related to quantum-limited microwave amplifier, types of amplifiers, designs and structures, advantages and limitations, and future development are discussed.

Keywords: Amplifiers, qubit, resonators, microwave amplification, microwave photon, superconductor, Josephson junction

1.1 Introduction

At present, detection and amplification of very weak microwave signals are attaining an interest for various quantum-based applications such as RADAR, space technology, communication, ...
