Magnetic-field dependent vortex dynamics and critical currents in superconducting microwires with regular large-area perforation by pinholes
Dong Zhu, Ilya Charaev, Konstantin Ilin +1
We report on results of simulations and experiments of vortex states in superconducting micro-wires with periodic rectangular pinhole structures. The simulations have been performe…
Misfit layer superconductors, tuneable bulk heterostructures with strong 2D effects
Tomas Samuely, Martin Gmitra, Tristan Cren +2
Atomically thin layered materials are systems with zero limit bulk-to-surface ratio. Their physical properties are determined by two-dimensionality and strongly affected by interfa…
Fundamental limits of few-layer NbSe microbolometers at terahertz frequencies
K. Shein, E. Zharkova, M. A. Kashchenko +11
The rapid development of infrared spectroscopy, observational astronomy, and scanning near-field microscopy has been enabled by the emergence of sensitive mid- and far-infrared pho…
Single-photon detection using large-scale high-temperature MgB sensors at 20 K
I. Charaev, E. K. Batson, S. Cherednichenko +10
Ultra-fast single-photon detectors with high current density and operating temperature can benefit space and ground applications, including quantum optical communication systems, l…
Phonon heat capacity and disorder: new opportunities for performance enhancement of superconducting devices
M. Sidorova, A. D. Semenov, I. Charaev +4
We experimentally study for the first time the self-heating normal domain in magnetic field using nanowires made of granular NbTiN films with sub-10~nm thicknesses. Specifically, w…
Effective suppression of dark counts in superconducting microstructures with grid of pinholes in a magnetic field
Dong Zhu, Ilya Charaev, Andreas Schilling
In a magnetic field, vortices significantly contribute to the dark counts of single-photon detectors made of superconducting wires, and they are also limiting the critical current…
