Abstract
A linear amplifier using a flux-flow phenomenon in a long Josephson junction has been designed and tested by connecting a load resistance. The present experiment has demonstrated that a current gain of 500/Ws (1/µm) is obtained for the load resistance of 9 mΩ when an input signal is applied with a control line of width Ws (µm). An equivalent circuit of the amplifier has also been presented, which shows that the device is most suitable for current amplification with large gain in low impedance circuits.

Thermal Fluctuations in Resonant Motion of Fluxons on a Josephson Transmission Line: Theory and Experiment

TL;DR: In this paper, a theoretical expression for the radiation linewidth was derived from a full statistical treatment of thermal fluctuations in the fluxon velocity, and the result appeared to be very general and was corroborated by experimental determination of the radiation emission from overlap Nb-$I$-Pb junctions.
