Intrinsically-limited timing jitter in molybdenum silicide superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors
Misael Caloz, Boris Korzh, Edward Ramirez +5
Recent progress in the development of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) has delivered excellent performances, and has had a great impact on a range of resea…

Determining the depairing current in superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors
S. Frasca, B. Korzh, M. Colangelo +12
We estimate the depairing current of superconducting nanowire single photon detectors (SNSPDs) by studying the dependence of the nanowires kinetic inductance on their bias current.…

Superconducting nanowire single-photon detector with integrated impedance-matching taper
Di Zhu, Marco Colangelo, Boris A. Korzh +11
Conventional readout of a superconducting nanowire single-photon detector (SNSPD) sets an upper bound on the output voltage to be the product of the bias current and the load imped…
