Coupling of Josephson flux-flow oscillators to an external RC load

Abstract

We investigate by numerical simulations the behavior of the power dissipated in a resistive load capacitively coupled to a Josephson flux flow oscillator and compare the results to those obtained for a d.c. coupled purely resistive load. Assuming realistic values for the parameters R and C, both in the high- and in the low-Tc case the power is large enough to allow the operation of such a device in applications.Comment: uuencoded, gzipped tar archive containing 11 pages of REVTeX text + 4 PostScript figures.
