Abstract
Trap circuits for use with superconducting integrated circuits having differential capacitively-coupled resonant clock networks are described. An example superconducting integrated circuit (IC) includes a first superconducting circuit comprising: (1) a first Josephson junction (JJ) coupled via a first capacitor to a first clock line, where the first capacitor is configured to receive a first clock signal having a first phase via the first clock line and couple a first bias current to the first JJ, and (2) a second JJ coupled via a second capacitor to a second clock line, where the second capacitor is configured to receive a second clock signal having a second phase via the second clock line and couple a second bias current to the second JJ. The superconducting IC further includes a first trap circuit for the first superconducting circuit and a second trap circuit for a second superconducting circuit having additional JJs.
