Superconducting MoN thin films prepared by DC reactive magnetron sputtering for nanowire single-photon detectors
Lily Hallett, Ilya Charaev, Akshay Agarwal +4
We present a comprehensive study of molybdenum nitride (MoN) thin film deposition using direct current (DC) reactive magnetron sputtering. We have investigated the effect of variou…
Enhancing the Performance of Superconducting Nanowire-Based Detectors with High-Filling Factor by Using Variable Thickness
Reza Baghdadi, Ekkehart Schmidt, Saman Jahani +9
Current crowding at bends of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors is one of the main factors limiting the performance of meander-style detectors with large filling fact…
Superconducting Nanowire Fabrication on Niobium Nitride using Helium Ion Irradiation
Glenn D. Martinez, Drew Buckley, Ilya Charaev +3
Superconducting devices are prone to reduced performance caused by impurities and defects along the edges of their wires, which can lead to local current crowding. In this study, w…
