Abstract: We report on a superconducting hot electron bolometer coupled to radiation via a broadband antenna. The bolometer, a structured NbN film, was patterned on a thin dielectric membrane between terminals of a gold slotline antenna. We investigated the response to submillimeter radiation (wave-lengths ∼ 0.1 mm to 0.7 mm) in the fundamental Gaussian mode. We found that the directivity of the antenna was constant within a factor of 2.5 through the whole experimental range. The noise equivalent power of the bolometer at 119 µm was ∼ 3 · 10−13 W/Hz1/2; a time constant of ∼ 160 ps was estimated.

Терагерцевый сверхпроводниковый детектор с аттоджоулевым энергетическим разрешением и постоянной времени 25 пс. In Труды XVIII международного симпозиума «Нанофизика и наноэлектроника» (Vol. 1, pp. 91–92).
Abstract: Представлены результаты измерения энергетического разрешения терагерцевого сверхпроводникового NbN-детектора на эффектеэлектронного разогрева, работающего при температуре около 10 К. Использование инновационной in situ технологии производства привело к существенному улучшению чувствительности детектора. Увеличение быстродействия детектора было достигнуто за счет реализации дополнительного диффузионного канала охла-ждения электронной подсистемы. Измеренное значение эквивалентной мощности шума на частоте 2.5 ТГц составило 2.0×10-13Вт•Гц-0.5, постоянной времени 25 пс. Соответствующее расчетное значение энергетического разрешения составило 2.5 аДж.

Abstract: We study spontaneous parametric downconversion (SPDC) in the strongly non-degenerate regime when the idler wave hits the terahertz range. By using the hot-electron bolometer, for the first time the SPDC-generated idler-wave photons were directly detected in the terahertz frequency range. Spectrum of corresponding signal photons was measured using standard technique by the CCD camera. Possible applications of correlated optical-terahertz biphotons are discussed.

Abstract: We report the results of our study of the input bandwidth of hot electron bolometers (HEB) embedded into the planar log-spiral antenna. The sensitive element is made of the ultrathin superconducting NbN film patterned as a bridge at the feed of the antenna. The contacts between the antenna and a sensitive element are made from in situ deposited gold (i.e., deposited over NbN film without breaking vacuum), which gives high quality contacts and makes the response of the HEB at higher frequencies less affected by the RF loss. An accurate experimental spectroscopic procedure is demonstrated that leads to the confirmation of the wide ( 8 THz) bandwidth in this antenna coupled device.
