Local thermal fluctuations in current-carrying superconducting nanowires
Alexej D. Semenov, Mariia Sidorova, Mikhail A. Skvortsov +3
We analyze the effect of different types of fluctuations in internal electron energy on the rates of dark and photon counts in straight current-carrying superconducting nanowires.…
Electron energy relaxation in disordered superconducting NbN films
Mariia Sidorova, Alexej Semenov, Heinz-Wilhelm Hübers +8
We report on the inelastic-scattering rate of electrons on phonons and relaxation of electron energy studied by means of magnetoconductance, and photoresponse, respectively, in a s…
Geometrical jitter and bolometric regime in photon detection by straight superconducting nanowire
Artem Kuzmin, Steffen Doerner, Stefan Wuensch +4
We present a direct observation of the geometrical jitter in single photon detection by a straight superconducting nanowire. Differential measurement technique was applied to the 1…
Thermal properties of NbN single-photon detectors
E. M. Baeva, M. V. Sidorova, A. A. Korneev +9
We investigate thermal properties of a NbN single-photon detector capable of unit internal detection efficiency. Using an independent calibration of the coupling losses we determin…
Timing jitter in photon detection by straight superconducting nanowires: Effect of magnetic field and photon flux
Mariia Sidorova, Alexej Semenov, Heinz-Wilhelm Hubers +4
We studied the effect of the external magnetic field and photon flux on timing jitter in photon detection by straight superconducting NbN nanowires. At two wavelengths 800 and 1560…
Physical mechanisms of timing jitter in photon detection by current carrying superconducting nanowires
Mariia Sidorova, Alexej Semenov, Heinz-Wilhelm Hubers +4
We studied timing jitter in the appearance of photon counts in meandering nanowires with different fractional amount of bends. Timing jitter, which is the probability density of th…
