Abstract: YBCO step-edge junctions and SQUID on sapphire substrates using CeO 2  as a
buffer layer are fabricated. A steep step-edge is formed in the CeO 2  buffer layer by
the Ar +  ion milling of the buffer layer over a shadow mask having an overhang end
structure which allows for an extended time of milling for forming a deep steep step-edge
within the buffer layer. The step angle is greater than 81° as measured by AFM.
A high quality YBCO film is then epitaxially grown by pulse laser deposition. After
patterning, the junctions display RSJ-type I-V characteristics. The sapphire based
YBCO step-edge SQUIDs are installed onto a SQUID microscope system. SQUIDs
fabricated by the step-edge technique exhibit excellent magnetic field modulation,
high imaging qualities, and low noise.

Abstract: A method for performing a Simon's or Shor's quantum algorithm over a certain
function  f ( x ) encoded with a certain number  n  of qubits, comprises
     performing a superposition operation over a set of input vectors, generating a
superposition vector,   performing an entanglement operation, generating a corresponding
entanglement vector,   performing an interference operation, generating a corresponding output
vector.   
     This method carries out the superposition operation in a comparably fast manner
because it contemplates the operation of generating the superposition vector by
identifying only the non null component thereof and by calculating, in function of
the number  n  of qubits, the value 1/2   n     /2  of all the non null components of the
superposition vector, and by calculating indices of these components according to
an arithmetical succession, the seed of which is 1 and the common difference is
2   n   . 
     This method is implemented in a relative quantum gate.

luciferin present in the extracellular medium. Photon emissions in the presence of a
depolarising stimulus can be observed with these systems. pH-sensitive mutants of green
fluorescent protein are also provided, which are useful for visualizing exocytosis and for
imaging and measuring the pH of intracellular compartments.
