Title: Akinobu Kanda and His Superconducting Digital Device Patent

Introduction

Akinobu Kanda is an inventor associated with Saitama, Japan, and Riken Corporation. His recorded patent concerns a superconducting digital device designed to regulate and detect supercurrent.

Latest Patents

Kanda is credited with 1 patent: “Single-flux-quantum digital device.” The invention describes a first superconducting line arranged as a large ring and a second superconducting line connected to it, dividing the large ring into two smaller rings of substantially equal shape and area. A superconducting single-electron transistor regulates the supercurrent flowing through the second line, while a small tunnel-junction device detects changes in the supercurrent flowing through the first line. The tunnel-junction device connects at the point where the two superconducting lines meet.

Career Highlights

Kanda’s listed patent reflects work on superconducting circuitry and single-flux-quantum digital devices. The available information identifies Riken Corporation as his company affiliation.

Collaborations

Kanda’s listed coworkers include Takuo Sugano and Koji Ishibashi.

Conclusion

Akinobu Kanda’s recorded invention focuses on controlling and detecting supercurrent in a superconducting circuit, highlighting his contribution to digital-device technology.
