Synchronous single-photon detection with self-resetting GHz-gated superconducting NbN nanowires
Emanuel Knehr, Artem Kuzmin, Steffen Doerner +4
We demonstrate a GHz-gated operation of resonator-coupled superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors suitable for synchronous applications. In comparison with conventional dc…
Nanowire single-photon detectors made of atomic layer-deposited niobium nitride
Emanuel Knehr, Artem Kuzmin, Mario Ziegler +5
We demonstrate and characterize first superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) made from atomic layer-deposited (ALD) NbN layers. To assess the suitability of thes…
Comparison of SNSPDs biased with microwave and direct currents
Steffen Doerner, Artem Kuzmin, Stefan Wuensch +1
This paper presents a detailed investigation of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) biased with microwave and direct currents. We developed a hybrid detector,…
Geometrical jitter and bolometric regime in photon detection by straight superconducting nanowire
Artem Kuzmin, Steffen Doerner, Stefan Wuensch +4
We present a direct observation of the geometrical jitter in single photon detection by a straight superconducting nanowire. Differential measurement technique was applied to the 1…
Terahertz Transition-Edge Sensor with Kinetic-Inductance Amplifier at 4.2 K
Artem Kuzmin, Steffen Doerner, Stefan Singer +4
Different terrestrial terahertz applications would benefit from large-format arrays, operating in compact and inexpensive cryocoolers at liquid helium temperature with sensitivity,…
Timing jitter in photon detection by straight superconducting nanowires: Effect of magnetic field and photon flux
Mariia Sidorova, Alexej Semenov, Heinz-Wilhelm Hubers +4
We studied the effect of the external magnetic field and photon flux on timing jitter in photon detection by straight superconducting NbN nanowires. At two wavelengths 800 and 1560…
