Superconducting nanowire single-photon spectrometer exploiting cascaded photonic crystal cavities

Youngsun Yun, Andreas Vetter, Robin Stegmueller +4

Superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors promise efficient (~100%) and fast (~Gcps) detection of light at the single-photon level. They constitute one of the building block…
