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…
