Superconducting analogs of quantum optical phenomena: macroscopic quantum superpositions and squeezing in a superconducting quantum-interference device ring

In this paper we explore the quantum behavior of a superconducting quantum-interference device (SQUID) ring which has a significant Josephson coupling energy. We show that the eigenfunctions of the Hamiltonian for the ring can be used to create macroscopic quantum superposition states of the ring. W...
