Title The electron-phonon relaxation time in thin superconducting titanium nitride films Type Journal Article
Year 2013 Publication (down) Appl. Phys. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Appl. Phys. Lett.
Volume 103 Issue 25 Pages 252602 (1 to 4)
Keywords disordered TiN films, electron-phonon relaxation time
Abstract We report on the direct measurement of the electron-phonon relaxation time, τeph, in disordered TiN films. Measured values of τeph are from 5.5 ns to 88 ns in the 4.2 to 1.7 K temperature range and consistent with a T−3 temperature dependence. The electronic density of states at the Fermi level N0 is estimated from measured material parameters. The presented results confirm that thin TiN films are promising candidate-materials for ultrasensitive superconducting detectors.

Title Photothermoelectric response in asymmetric carbon nanotube devices exposed to sub-terahertz radiation Type Journal Article
Year 2013 Publication (down) Appl. Phys. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Appl. Phys. Lett.
Volume 103 Issue 18 Pages 181121 (1 to 5)
Keywords carbon nanotubes, CNT, THz radiation, SiO2 substrate
Abstract We report on the voltage response of carbon nanotube devices to sub-terahertz (THz) radiation. The devices contain carbon nanotubes (CNTs), which are over their length partially suspended and partially Van der Waals bonded to a SiO2 substrate, causing a difference in thermal contact. We observe a DC voltage upon exposure to 140 GHz radiation. Based on the observed gate voltage and power dependence, at different temperatures, we argue that the observed signal is both thermal and photovoltaic. The room temperature responsivity in the microwave to THz range exceeds that of CNT based devices reported before. Authors thank Professor P. Barbara for providing the catalyst for CNT growth and Dr. N. Chumakov and V. Rylkov for stimulating discussions. The work was supported by the RFBR (Grant No. 12-02-01291-a) and by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation (Contract No. 14.B25.31.0007).

Title High-efficiency single-photon detectors based on NbN films Type Miscellaneous
Year 2013 Publication (down) Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords SSPD, SNSPD
Abstract We present our resent results in development and testing of Superconducting Single-Photon Detectors (SSPD) with detection efficiencies greater than 85%. High values of obtained results are assigned to proposed design of the detector with integrated resonator structure, including two-layer optical cavity and anti-reflective coating (ARC).
