Abstract
The various embodiments described herein include methods, devices, and circuits for reducing or minimizing current crowding effects in manufactured superconductors. In some embodiments, a superconducting circuit includes: (1) a first component having a first connection point, the first connection point having a first width; (2) a second component having a second connection point, the second connection point having a second width that is larger than the first width; and (3) a connector electrically connecting the first connection point and the second connection point, the connector including: (a) a first taper having a first slope and a non-linear shape; (b) a second taper having a second slope; and (c) a connecting portion connecting the first taper to the second taper, the connecting portion having a third slope that is less than the first slope and less than the second slope.
