  Title Superconducting quantum detector for far infrared astronomy Type Conference Article
  Year 2002 Publication Far-IR, Sub-mm & MM Detector Technology Workshop Abbreviated Journal Far-IR, Sub-mm & MM Detector Technology Workshop  
  Volume Issue Pages (up) 3-49  
  Keywords SQD  
  Abstract We present the concept of the superconducting quantum detector for astronomy. Response to a single absorbed photon appears due to successive formation of a normal spot and phase-slip-centres in a narrow strip carrying sub-critical supercurrent. The detector simultaneously has a moderate energy resolution and a variable cut-off wavelength depending on both the material used and operation conditions. We simulated performance of the background-limited direct detector having the 100-micrometer cut-off wavelength. Low dark count rate will allow to realise 10-21 W Hz-1/2 noise equivalent power at 4 K background radiation. The detection mechanism provides a moderate 1/20 energy resolution at 50-micrometer wavelength.

  Title Superconducting thin film nanostructures as terahertz and infrared heterodyne and direct detectors Type Conference Article
  Year 2017 Publication 16th ISEC Abbreviated Journal 16th ISEC  
  Volume Issue Pages (up) Th-I-QTE-03 (1 to 3)  
  Keywords 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-chipquantum-efficiency (OCDE), and the heterodyne mixing with a close to the quantum limit sensitivity at the telecommunication wavelength using single device.

  Title Comparison of hot-spot formation in NbN and MoN thin superconducting films after photon absorption Type Conference Article
  Year 2017 Publication IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity Abbreviated Journal IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductiv  
  Volume 27 Issue 4 Pages (up) 5  
  Keywords Thin film devices, Superconducitng photoncounting devices, Nanowire single-photon detectors  
  Abstract In superconducting single-photon detectors SSPD

the efficiency of local suppression of superconductivity and hotspot

formation is controlled by diffusivity and electron-phonon

interaction time. Here we selected a material, 3.6-nm-thick MoNx

film, which features diffusivity close to those of NbN traditionally

used for SSPD fabrication, but with electron-phonon interaction

time an order of magnitude larger. In MoNx detectors we study

the dependence of detection efficiency on bias current, photon

energy, and strip width and compare it with NbN SSPD. We

observe non-linear current-energy dependence in MoNx SSPD

and more pronounced plateaus in dependences of detection

efficiency on bias current which we attribute to longer electronphonon

interaction time.

  Title Development of A Silicon Membrane-based Multi-pixel Hot Electron Bolometer Receiver Type Conference Article
  Year 2017 Publication IEEE Trans. Appl. Supercond. Abbreviated Journal IEEE Trans. Appl. Supercond.  
  Volume 27 Issue 4 Pages (up) 6  
  Keywords Multi-pixel, HEB, silicon-on-insulator, horn array  
  Abstract We report on the development of a multi-pixel

Hot Electron Bolometer (HEB) receiver fabricated using

silicon membrane technology. The receiver comprises a

2 × 2 array of four HEB mixers, fabricated on a single

chip. The HEB mixer chip is based on a superconducting

NbN thin film deposited on top of the silicon-on-insulator

(SOI) substrate. The thicknesses of the device layer and

handling layer of the SOI substrate are 20 μm and 300 μm

respectively. The thickness of the device layer is chosen

such that it corresponds to a quarter-wave in silicon at

1.35 THz. The HEB mixer is integrated with a bow-tie

antenna structure, in turn designed for coupling to a

circular waveguide,
