Abstract
Integrating nano-scale objects, such as single molecules or carbon nanotubes, into impedance transformers and performing radio-frequency measurements allows for high time-resolution transport measurements with improved signal-to-noise ratios. The realization of such transformers implemented with superconducting transmission lines for the 2-10 GHz frequency range is presented here. Controlled electromigration of an integrated gold break junction is used to characterize a 6 GHz impedance matching device. The real part of the RF impedance of the break junction extracted from microwave reflectometry at a maximum bandwidth of 45 MHz of the matching circuit is in good agreement with the measured direct current resistance.
