  Title Development of the experimental setup for investigation of latching of superconducting single-photon detector caused by blinding attack on the quantum key distribution system Type Conference Article
  Year 2017 Publication (up) EPJ Web of Conferences Abbreviated Journal EPJ Web of Conferences  
  Volume 132 Issue 2 Pages 2  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Recently bright-light control of the SSPD has been

demonstrated. This attack employed a “backdoor” in the detector biasing

scheme. Under bright-light illumination, SSPD becomes resistive and

remains “latched” in the resistive state even when the light is switched off.

While the SSPD is latched, Eve can simulate SSPD single-photon response

by sending strong light pulses, thus deceiving Bob. We developed the

experimental setup for investigation of a dependence on latching threshold

of SSPD on optical pulse length and peak power. By knowing latching

threshold it is possible to understand essential requirements for

development countermeasures against blinding attack on quantum key

distribution system with SSPDs.

  Title Development of A Silicon Membrane-based Multi-pixel Hot Electron Bolometer Receiver Type Conference Article
  Year 2017 Publication (up) IEEE Trans. Appl. Supercond. Abbreviated Journal IEEE Trans. Appl. Supercond.  
  Volume 27 Issue 4 Pages 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,

  Title Signatures of surface magnetic disorder in niobium films Type Journal Article
  Year 2021 Publication (up) IEEE Trans. Appl. Supercond. Abbreviated Journal IEEE Trans. Appl. Supercond.  
  Volume 31 Issue 5 Pages 1-5  
  Keywords Nb films  
  Abstract We present our studies on the evolution of the normal and superconducting properties with thickness of thin Nb films with a low level of non-magnetic disorder ( kFl≈150 for the thickest film in the set). The analysis of the superconducting behavior points to the presence of magnetic moments, hidden in the native oxide on the surface of Nb films. Using the Abrikosov-Gorkov theory, we obtain the density of surface magnetic moments of 1013 cm −2 , which is in agreement with the previously reported data for Nb films.

  Title The cascade switching of the photon number resolving superconducting single-photon detectors Type Journal Article
  Year 2021 Publication (up) IEEE Trans. Appl. Supercond. Abbreviated Journal IEEE Trans. Appl. Supercond.  
  Volume 31 Issue 2 Pages 1-4  
  Keywords PNR SSPD, SNSPD  
  Abstract In this article, present the first detailed study of cascade switching in superconducting photon number resolving detectors. The detectors were made in the form of four parallel nanowires, coupled with the single-mode optical fiber and mounted into a closed-cycle refrigerator with a temperature of 2.1 K. We found out the value of additional false pulses (N cas.sw. ) appearing due to cascade switching and showed that it is possible to set up the detector bias current that corresponds to a high level of the detection efficiency and a low level of N cas.sw. simultaneously. We reached the detection efficiency of 60% and N cas.sw. = 0.3%.
