Low-loss inductors are essential components in various superconducting circuits, such as qubits or digital electronics. In this study, we investigate highly compact inductors formed by vertically stacking Josephson junctions. Our implementation employs several layers of aluminum separated by tunnel barriers. Individual stacks are connected by suspended superconducting bridges, which are free of additional dielectric materials and, therefore, should not contribute significantly to losses. We present implementation details, fabrication results, and device characterization measurements.
