  Title Quantum key distribution protocol with private-public key Type Journal Article
  Year 2009 Publication arXiv Abbreviated Journal arXiv  
  Volume Issue Pages (up) 3  
  Keywords quantum cryptography; QKD; protocol  
  Abstract A quantum cryptographic protocol based in public key cryptography combinations and private key cryptography is presented. Unlike the BB84 protocol 1 and its many variants 2,3 two quantum channels are used. The present research does not make reconciliation mechanisms of information to derive the key. A three related system of key distribution are described.

  Title Electrothermal feedback in superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors Type Journal Article
  Year 2009 Publication Phys. Rev. B Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. B  
  Volume 79 Issue 10 Pages (up) 4  
  Keywords SNSPD  
  Abstract We investigate the role of electrothermal feedback in the operation of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs). It is found that the desired mode of operation for SNSPDs is only achieved if this feedback is unstable, which happens naturally through the slow electrical response associated with their relatively large kinetic inductance. If this response is sped up in an effort to increase the device count rate, the electrothermal feedback becomes stable and results in an effect known as latching, where the device is locked in a resistive state and can no longer detect photons. We present a set of experiments which elucidate this effect and a simple model which quantitatively explains the results.

  Title Odd- and even-order dispersion cancellation in quantum interferometry Type Journal Article
  Year 2009 Publication Phys. Rev. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. Lett.  
  Volume 102 Issue 10 Pages (up) 4  
  Keywords  
  Abstract We describe a novel effect involving odd-order dispersion cancellation. We demonstrate that odd- and even-order dispersion cancellation may be obtained in different regions of a single quantum interferogram using frequency-anticorrelated entangled photons and a new type of quantum interferometer. This offers new opportunities for quantum communication and metrology in dispersive media.

  Title Correlation of temperature response and structure of annealed VOx thin films for IR detector applications Type Journal Article
  Year 2009 Publication J. Vac. Sci. Technol. A Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 27 Issue 4 Pages (up) 6  
  Keywords Annealing  
  Abstract The effects of thermal annealing on vanadium oxide (VOx) thin films prepared by pulsed-dc magnetron sputtering were studied to explore methods of improving the efficiency of uncooled IR imaging microbolometers, particularly with respect to maximizing the temperature coefficients of resistance (TCR) (typically ~2%) while minimizing resistivity values (typically 0.05–5 Ω cm). Since high TCR values are usually associated with high resistivities, the experiments were designed to find processing conditions that provide an optimal balance in these properties and to then determine the underlying structural correlations which would enable rational design of thin films for this specific application. VOx films of different compositions were deposited by pulsed-dc reactive sputtering from a vanadium target at different oxygen flow rates. The deposited films were further modified by annealing in inert (nitrogen) and oxidizing (oxygen) atmospheres at four different temperatures for 10, 20, or 30 min at a time. The resistivities of the as-deposited films ranged from 0.2 to 13 Ω cm and the TCR values varied from –1.6% to –2.2%. Depending on the exact annealing conditions, several orders of magnitude change in resistance and significant variations in TCR were observed. Optimal results were obtained with annealing in a nitrogen atmosphere. Structural characterization by x-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy indicated changes in the film crystallinity and phase for annealing conditions over 300 °C with the onset and extent of the changes dependent on which annealing atmosphere was used.

  Title Series production of state-of-the-art 602-720 GHz SIS receivers for band 9 of ALMA Type Conference Article
  Year 2009 Publication Proc. 20th Int. Symp. Space Terahertz Technol. Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume Issue Pages (up) 7-11  
  Keywords SIS mixer, noise temperature, ALMA, band 9  
  Abstract The Atacama Large Millimeter/Sub-millimeter Array (ALMA) requires the development and production of 73 state-of-the-art receivers for the 602-720 GHz range – the ALMA Band 9 cartridges. Development and pre-production of the first 8 cartridges was completed between 2003 and 2008, resulting in a cartridge design that meets the project's challenging requirements. The cartridge design remains essentially unchanged for production, while the production and test processes developed during pre-production have been fine-tuned to address the biggest new challenge for this phase – ramping up production to a rate of 2 cartridges per month over 2009-2012.
