Popis: The interaction between the quantum states of two aluminum superconducting rings forming an 8-shape circular-asymmetric microstructure was examined under a threading magnetic flux and bias by an alternating current without a dc component. Quantum oscillations of the rectified dc voltage Vdc(B) as a function of magnetic field were measured in the 8-shape microstructure at various bias ac currents and temperatures close to critical. Fourier and wavelet analyses of Vdc(B) functions revealed the presence of various combination frequencies in addition to two ring fundamental frequencies, which suggests the interaction in the structure. Deviation of the Vdc(B) function from oddness with respect to the magnetic field direction was found for the first time.
