| Abstract |
Hot electrons in metals at helium temperatures under steady conditions can be produced by passing an electric current of moderate density through thin, narrow (-1 μm wide) metallic films in good thermal contact with bulk single-crystal dielectric substrates. This paper is concerned with the theory of hot electrons in normal metals at low temperatures (when θ<< θ(D), where θ is the average electron energy and θ(D) is the Debye temperature). The theory is formulated in terms of realistic electron and phonon dispersion laws, taking into account the experimental possibility of heat removal from the sample. In the case in which the temperature approximation of Kagnov, Lifshitz, and Tanatarov is not satisfied when elastic scattering of electrons is dominant in a steady state electric field, the kinetic equation is derived for the energy-dependent, hot electron distribution function, which determines the associated nonlinear responses. The solution of this equation is discussed for a simple model. It is shown that the experimental information on the electron-phonon interaction in a metal can be obtained in terms of the well-known spectral functions. This is illustrated by experiments determining the nonlinear field dependence of the resistance, by tunnel experiments, and by critical current hysteresis measurements (for superconducting metals). Theoretical estimates which support the observability of the effects underdiscussion are presented. |

| Abstract |
Superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPD) are used in quantum optics when record-breaking time resolution, high speed, and exceptionally low levels of dark counts (false readings) are required. Their detection efficiency is limited, however, by the absorption coefficient of the ultrathin superconducting film for the detected radiation. One possible way of increasing the detector absorption without limiting its broadband response is to make a detector in the form of several vertically stacked layers and connect them in parallel. For the first time we have studied single-photon detection in a multilayer structure consisting of three superconducting layers of amorphous tungsten silicide (WSi) separated by thin layers of amorphous silicon. Two operating modes of the detector are illustrated: an avalanche regime and an arm-trigger regime. A shift in these modes occurs at currents of ∼0.5–0.6 times the critical current of the detector.

| Abstract |
Starting from the equation of Gor'kov and Eliashberg in a form introduced by Eilenberger, we derive a set of linearized equations for the deviation from the equilibrium value of the quasiparticle distribution function as well as of the order parameter. These equations resemble the Boltzmann equation and the Ginzburg-Landau equation, respectively, and they form a set of coupled equations. Two different modes can be distinguished, depending on whether the order parameter changes in magnitude or in phase. The equations are solved for the case of a stationary quasiparticle injection into a superconductor and the change in the electrochemical potential of the quasiparticles is calculated. Furthermore, we treat the problem of a current flowing perpendicular to a superconducting-normal interface in which a normal current is converted into a supercurrent, and we calculate the extra resistance of the interface. |
