Measuring thickness in thin NbN films for superconducting devices
Owen Medeiros, Marco Colangelo, Ilya Charaev +1
We present the use of a commercially available fixed-angle multi-wavelength ellipsometer for quickly measuring the thickness of NbN thin films for the fabrication and performance i…
Enhancement of optical response in nanowires by negative-tone PMMA lithography
Ilya Charaev, Andrew Dane, Akshay Agarwal +1
The method of negative-tone-PMMA electron-beam lithography is investigated to improve the performance of nanowire-based superconducting detectors. Using this approach, the supercon…
A distributed electrical model for superconducting nanowire single photon detectors
Qing-Yuan Zhao, Daniel F. Santavicca, Di Zhu +2
To analyze the switching dynamics and output performance of a superconducting nanowire single photon detector (SNSPD), the nanowire is usually modelled as an inductor in series wit…
