Title (down) PICA: Backside failure analysis of CMOS circuits using picosecond imaging circuit analysis Type Journal Article
Year 2000 Publication Microelectronics Reliability Abbreviated Journal Microelectronics Reliability
Volume 40 Issue Pages 1353-1358
Keywords SSPD, CMOS testing
Abstract Normal operation of complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) devices entails the emission of picosecond pulses of light, which can be used to diagnose circuit problems. The pulses that are observed from submicron sized field effect transistors (FETs) are synchronous with logic state switching. Picosecond Imaging Circuit Analysis (PICA), a new optical imaging technique combining imaging with timing, spatially resolves individual devices at the 0.5 micron level and switching events on a 10 picosecond timescale. PICA is used here for the diagnostics of failures on two VLSI microprocessors.

Title (down) Phase-slip lines as a resistance mechanism in transition-edge sensors Type Journal Article
Year 2014 Publication Appl. Phys. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Appl. Phys. Lett.
Volume 104 Issue Pages 042602
Keywords microbolometers, TES, phase-slip lines, PSL
Abstract The fundamental mechanism of resistance in voltage-biased superconducting films is poorly understood despite its importance as the basis of transition-edge sensors (TESs). TESs are utilized in state-of-the-art microbolometers and microcalorimeters covering a wide range of energies and applications. We present a model for the resistance of a TES based on phase-slip lines (PSLs) and compare the model to data. One of the model's predictions, discrete changes in the number of PSLs, is a possible explanation for the observed switching between discrete current states in localized regions of bias.

Title (down) Measuring the quantum nature of light with a single source and a single detector Type Journal Article
Year 2012 Publication Phys. Rev. A Abbreviated Journal
Volume 86 Issue 5 Pages 053814
Keywords SSPD, SNSPD, saturation count rates, dead time, dynamic range
Abstract An elementary experiment in optics consists of a light source and a detector. Yet, if the source generates nonclassical correlations such an experiment is capable of unambiguously demonstrating the quantum nature of light. We realized such an experiment with a defect center in diamond and a superconducting detector. Previous experiments relied on more complex setups, such as the Hanbury Brown and Twiss configuration, where a beam splitter directs light to two photodetectors, creating the false impression that the beam splitter is a fundamentally required element. As an additional benefit, our results provide a simplification of the widely used photon-correlation techniques.
