Title Countermeasures against blinding attack on superconducting nanowire detectors for QKD Type Conference Article
Year 2015 Publication (down) EPJ Web Conf. Abbreviated Journal EPJ Web Conf.
Volume 103 Issue Pages 10002 (1 to 2)
Keywords SSPD, SNSPD, QKD
Abstract Nowadays, the superconducting single-photon detectors (SSPDs) are used in Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) instead of single-photon avalanche photodiodes. Recently bright-light control of the SSPD has been demonstrated. This attack employed a “backdoor” in the detector biasing technique. We developed the autoreset system which returns the SSPD to superconducting state when it is latched. We investigate latched state of the SSPD and define limit conditions for effective blinding attack. Peculiarity of the blinding attack is a long nonsingle photon response of the SSPD. It is much longer than usual single photon response. Besides, we need follow up response duration of the SSPD. These countermeasures allow us to prevent blind attack on SSPDs for Quantum Key Distribution.

Title Electron-phonon-impurity interference in thin NbC films: electron inelastic scattering time and corrections to resistivity Type Conference Article
Year 1996 Publication (down) Czech. J. Phys. Abbreviated Journal Czech. J. Phys.
Volume 46 Issue S2 Pages 857-858
Keywords NbC films
Abstract Complex study of transport properties of impure NbC films with the electron mean free pathl=0.6–13 nm show the crucial role of the electron-phonon-impurity interference (EPII). In the temperature range 20–70 K we found the interference correction to resistivity proportional to T2 and to the residual resistivity of the film. Using the comprehensive theory of EPII, we determine the electron coupling with transverse phonons and calculate the electron inelastic scattering time. Direct measurements of the inelastic electron scattering time using a response to a high-frequency amplitude modulated cw radiation agree well with the theory.

Title Effect of the interference between electron-phonon and electron-impurity (boundary) scattering on resistivity Nb, Al, Be films Type Conference Article
Year 1996 Publication (down) Czech J. Phys. Abbreviated Journal Czech J. Phys.
Volume 46 Issue S5 Pages 2489-2490
Keywords Al, Be, Nb films
Abstract The temperature dependence of the resistivity of thin Nb, Al, Be films has been studied over a wide temperature range 4-300 K. We have found that the temperature-dependent correction to the residual resistivity is well described by the sum of the Bloch-Grüneisen term and the term originating from the interference between electron-phonon and electron-impurity scattering. Study of the transport interference phenomena allows to determine electron-phonon coupling in disordered metals. The interference term is proportional to T2 and also to the residual resistivity and dominates over the Bloch-Grüneisen term at low temperatures (T<40 K).
