  Title Terahertz imaging system based on superconducting integrated receiver Type Conference Article
  Year 2010 Publication Proc. 2-nd Int. Conf. Terahertz and Microwave radiation: Generation, Detection and Applications Abbreviated Journal (down) Proc. 2-nd Int. Conf. Terahertz and Microwave radiation: Generation, Detection and Applications  
  Volume Issue Pages 20-22  
  Keywords SIS mixer, SIR  
  Abstract The development of terahertz imaging instruments for security systems is on the cutting edge of terahertz technology. We are developing a THz imaging system based on a superconducting integrated receiver (SIR). An SIR is a new type of heterodyne receiver based on an SIS mixer integrated with a flux-flow oscillator (FFO) and a harmonic mixer which is used for phase-locking the FFO. Developing an array of SIRs would allow obtaining amplitude and phase characteristics of incident radiation in the plane of the receiver. Employing an SIR in an imaging system means building an entirely new instrument with many advantages compare to traditional systems: i) high temperature resolution, comparable to the best results for incoherent receivers; ii) high spectral resolution allowing spectral analysis of various substances; iii) the local oscillator frequency can be varied to obtain images at different frequencies, effectively providing “color” images; iv) since a heterodyne receiver preserves the phase of the radiation, it is possible to construct 3D images. The paper presents a prototype THz imaging system using an 1 pixel SIR. We have studied the dependence of the noise equivalent temperature difference (NETD) on the integration time and also possible ways of achieving best possible sensitivity. An NETD of 13 mK was obtained with an integration time of 1 sec a detection bandwidth of 4 GHz at a local oscillator frequency of 520 GHz. An important advantage of an FFO is its wide operation range: 300-700 GHz.

  Title Superconducting microstructures with high impedance Type Journal Article
  Year 2020 Publication Phys. Solid State Abbreviated Journal (down) Phys. Solid State  
  Volume 62 Issue 9 Pages 1539-1542  
  Keywords superconducting channels, SIS, inetic inductance, tunneling contacts, high impedance  
  Abstract The transport properties of two types of quasi-one-dimensional superconducting microstructures were investigated at ultra-low temperatures: the narrow channels close-packed in the shape of meander, and the chains of tunneling contacts “superconductor-insulator-superconductor.” Both types of the microstructures demonstrated high value of high-frequency impedance and-or the dynamic resistance. The study opens up potential for using of such structures as current stabilizing elements with zero dissipation.

  Title Electron heating in metallic resistors at sub-Kelvin temperature Type Journal Article
  Year 2007 Publication Phys. Rev. B Abbreviated Journal (down) Phys. Rev. B  
  Volume 76 Issue Pages 165426(1-9)  
  Keywords electron heating in resistor, HEB distributed model, HEB model, hot electrons  
  Abstract In the presence of Joule heating, the electronic temperature in a metallic resistor placed at sub-Kelvin temperatures can significantly exceed the phonon temperature. Electron cooling proceeds mainly through two processes: electronic diffusion to and from the connecting wires and electron-phonon coupling. The goal of this paper is to present a general solution of the problem in a form that can easily be used in practical situations. As an application, we compute two quantities that depend on the electronic temperature profile: the second and the third cumulant of the current noise at zero frequency, as a function of the voltage across the resistor. We also consider time-dependent heating, an issue relevant for experiments in which current pulses are used, for instance, in time-resolved calorimetry experiments.

  Title Relaxation of the resistive superconducting state in boron-doped diamond films Type Journal Article
  Year 2016 Publication Phys. Rev. B Abbreviated Journal (down) Phys. Rev. B  
  Volume 93 Issue 6 Pages 064506  
  Keywords boron-doped diamond films, resistive superconducting state, relaxation time  
  Abstract We report a study of the relaxation time of the restoration of the resistive superconducting state in single crystalline boron-doped diamond using amplitude-modulated absorption of (sub-)THz radiation (AMAR). The films grown on an insulating diamond substrate have a low carrier density of about 2.5×1021cm−3 and a critical temperature of about 2K. By changing the modulation frequency we find a high-frequency rolloff which we associate with the characteristic time of energy relaxation between the electron and the phonon systems or the relaxation time for nonequilibrium superconductivity. Our main result is that the electron-phonon scattering time varies clearly as T−2, over the accessible temperature range of 1.7 to 2.2 K. In addition, we find, upon approaching the critical temperature Tc, evidence for an increasing relaxation time on both sides of Tc.

  Title Electron-phonon interaction in disordered metal films: The resistivity and electron dephasing rate Type Journal Article
  Year 1997 Publication Phys. Rev. B Abbreviated Journal (down) Phys. Rev. B  
  Volume 56 Issue 16 Pages 10089-10096  
  Keywords disordered metal films, electron-phonon interaction, electron dephasing rate, resistivity  
  Abstract The temperature dependence of the resistance of films of Al, Be, and NbC with small values of the electron mean free path l=1.5–10nm has been measured at 4.2–300 K. The resistance of all the films contains a T2 contribution that is proportional to the residual resistance; this contribution has been attributed to the interference between the elastic electron scattering and the electron-phonon scattering. Fitting the data to the theory of the electron-phonon-impurity interference (M. Yu. Reiser and A. V. Sergeev, Zh. Eksp. Teor. Fiz. 92, 224 (1987) [Sov. Phys. JETP 65, 1291 (1987)]), we obtain constants of interaction of the electrons with transverse phonons, and estimate the contribution of this interaction to the electron dephasing rate in thin films of Au, Al, Be, Nb, and NbC. Our estimates are in a good agreement with the experimental data on the inelastic electron-phonon scattering in these films. This indicates that the interaction of electrons with transverse phonons controls the electron-phonon relaxation rate in thin-metal films over a broad temperature range.
