Superconducting single-photon detectors with saturated dependence of quantum efficiency vs. bias current

Konstantin Smirnov, Alexander Divochiy, Yury Vakhtomin +4

It was investigated the possibility of creating NbN superconducting single-photon detectors with saturated dependence of quantum efficiency versus normalized bias current. It was s…

Rise times of voltage pulses in NbN superconducting single-photon detectors

K. V. Smirnov, A. V. Divochiy, Yu. B. Vakhtomin +6

We have found experimentally that the rise times of voltage pulses in NbN superconducting single photon detectors increase nonlinearly with increasing detector length. We fabricate…

Superconducting detector of IR single-photons based on thin WSi films

V. A. Seleznev, A. Divochiy, Yu. B. Vakhtomin +6

We have developed the deposition technology of WSi thin films 4 to 9 nm thick with high temperature values of superconducting transition (Tc~4 K). Based on deposed films there were…

Superconducting parallel nanowire detector with photon number resolving functionality

F. Marsili, D. Bitauld, A. Fiore +9

We present a new photon number resolving detector (PNR), the Parallel Nanowire Detector (PND), which uses spatial multiplexing on a subwavelength scale to provide a single electric…

Superconducting nanowire photon number resolving detector at telecom wavelength

Aleksander Divochiy, Francesco Marsili, David Bitauld +12

The optical-to-electrical conversion, which is the basis of optical detectors, can be linear or nonlinear. When high sensitivities are needed single-photon detectors (SPDs) are use…
