Title Characterization of electro-optical devices with low jitter single photon detectors – towards an optical sampling oscilloscope beyond 100 GHz Type Conference Article
Year 2018 Publication ECOC Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 1-3
Keywords SSPD, SNSPD, SPAD
Abstract We showcase an optical random sampling scope that exploits single photon counting and apply it to characterize optical transceivers. We study single photon detectors with a jitter down to 40 ps. The method can be extended beyond 100 GHz.

Title Superconducting Single-Photon Detectors for Integrated Nanophotonics Circuits Type Conference Article
Year 2017 Publication 16th ISEC Abbreviated Journal 16th ISEC
Volume Issue Pages 1-3
Keywords SSPD, SNSPD
Abstract We present an overview of our recent achievements in integration of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors SNSPD with dielectric optical waveguides. We are able to produce complex nanophotonics integrated circuits containing optical elements and photon detector on single chip thus producing a compact integrated platform for quantum optics applications.

Title Superconducting thin film as infrared heterodyne and direct detectors Type Conference Article
Year 2017 Publication 16th ISEC Abbreviated Journal 16th ISEC
Volume Issue Pages 1-3
Keywords optical waveguide SSPD, SNSPD
Abstract We present our recent achievements in the development of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) integrated with optical waveguides on a chip. We demonstrate both single-photon counting with up to 90% on-chip-quantum-efficiency (OCDE), and the heterodyne mixing with a close to the quantum limit sensitivity at the telecommunication wavelength using single device.

Title Branchline and directional THz coupler based on PECVD SiNx-technology Type Conference Article
Year 2016 Publication 41st IRMMW-THz Abbreviated Journal 41st IRMMW-THz
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords microstrip, fixtures, coplanar waveguides, couplers, standards, probes, dielectrics
Abstract A fabrication technology to realize THz microstrip lines and passive circuit components is developed and tested making use of a plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition grown silicon nitride (PECVD SiNx) dielectric membrane. We use 2 μm thick SiNx and 300 nm thick gold layers on sapphire substrates. We fabricate a set of structures for thru-reflect-line (TRL) calibration, with the reflection standard implemented as a short through the via. We find losses of 9.5 dB/mm at 300 GHz for a 50 Ohm line. For a branchline coupler we measure 2.5 dB insertion loss, 1 dB amplitude imbalance and 21 dB isolation. Good control over the THz lines parameters is proven by similar performance of a set of 5 structures. The directional couplers show -14 dB transmission to the coupled port, -24 dB to the isolated port and -25 dB in reflection. The SiNx membrane, used as a dielectric, is compatible with atomic force microscopy (AFM) cantilevers allowing the application of this technology to the development of a THz near-field microscope.

Title Heterodyne source of THz range based on semiconductor superlattice multiplier Type Conference Article
Year 2011 Publication IRMMW-THz Abbreviated Journal IRMMW-THz
Volume Issue Pages 1-2
Keywords NbN HEB mixer, superlattice
Abstract We present the results of our studies of the possibility of developing a heterodyne receiver incorporating a hot-electron bolometer mixer as the detector and a semiconductor superlattice multiplier driven by a reference synthesizer as the local oscillator. We observe that such a local oscillator offers enough power in the terahertz range to pump the HEB into the operating state.
