In this paper we consider a non-dissipative distributed parameter circuit at a finite temperature T. We find the unitary operator for diagonalizing the Hamiltonian of the uniform periodic transmission line. The unitary operator is expressed in a coordinate representation. Thermal field dynamic is used in our discussion. It is shown that distributing parameter circuits and quantum fluctuations, which also have distributing properties, are related to both the circuit parameters and the positions and the model of signals and temperature T. The higher the temperature, the more quantum noise the circuit exhibits. The research will be helpful to miniaturize intergreate circuits and electric components. It will be also significant for the futher study of the qualitities of mesoscopic system.
Mesoscopic damped mutual inductance coupled double resonance RLC circuit is quantized by the method of damped harmonic oscillator quantization and linear transformation. The energy levels of this circuit are given. By thermo-field dynamics (TFD), the quantum fluctuations of the current and voltage of each loop are researched in the thermal vacuum state, thermal coherent state and thermal squeezed state. It is shown that the quantum fluctuations of the current and voltage are related not only to the circuit inherent parameter and coupled magnitude of mutual inductance, but also squeezed coefficients, squeezed angle, environmental temperature and damped resistance. Furthermore, because of environmental temperature and damped resistance, the quantum fluctuations increase with the increase of temperature and decay along with time.
