We are happy to announce that we have received the first Travelling-Wave Parametric Amplifier (TWPA) engineered and fabricated by Silent-Wave. Silent-Wave is a young start up from the Neél-Institute at Grenoble, France. The TWPA named Argo is their first commercial product. Argo is based on a Josephson-junction array and features ultra-low noise, wide bandwidth, flux-noise immunity and high-saturation power. We are excited to test Argo on Andreev qubits that we have realized in InAs nanowire Josepshon junctions within the European FET-open project AndQC.
