By coupling a superconducting weak link to a microwave resonator, recent experiments probed the spectrum and achieved the quantum manipulation of Andreev states in various systems. However, the quantitative understanding of the response of the resonator to changes in the occupancy of the Andreev levels, which are of fermionic nature, is missing. He...

Coherent quantum phase slips are expected to lead to a blockade of dc conduction in sufficiently narrow superconducting nanowires below a certain critical voltage. We present measurements of NbN nanowires in which not only is a critical voltage observed, but also in which this critical voltage may be tuned using a side-gate electrode. The critical...
