Title Dark counts initiated by macroscopic quantum tunneling in NbN superconducting photon detectors Type (down) Miscellaneous
Year 2014 Publication arXiv Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords NbN SSPD
Abstract We perform measurements of the switching current distributions of three w = 120 nm wide, 4 nm thick NbN superconducting strips which are used for single-photon detectors. These strips are much wider than the diameter the vortex cores, so they are classified as quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D). We discover evidence of macroscopic quantum tunneling by observing the saturation of the standard deviation of the switching distributions at temperatures around 2 K. We analyze our results using the Kurkijarvi-Garg model and find that the escape temperature also saturates at low temperatures, confirming that at sufficiently low temperatures, macroscopic quantum tunneling is possible in quasi-2D strips and can contribute to dark counts observed in single photon detectors.

Title Overview of recent results for superconducting NbN terahertz and optical detectors and mixers Type (down) Miscellaneous
Year 2014 Publication SM2 – Seminar on Terahertz Photonics Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 0562
Keywords NbN SSPD, SNSPD, HEB
Abstract We present our recent achievements in the development of sensitive and ultrafast thin-film superconducting sensors: hot-electron bolometers (HEB), HEB-mixers for terahertz range and infrared single-photon counters. These sensors have already demonstrated a performance that makes them devices-of-choice for many terahertz and optical applications.

Title Heterodyne detection at near-infrared wavelengths with a superconducting NbN hot-electron bolometer mixer Type (down) Journal Article
Year 2014 Publication Opt. Lett. Abbreviated Journal
Volume 39 Issue 6 Pages 1429-1432
Keywords HEB, zebra, IR, infrared
Abstract We report on the development of a highly sensitive optical receiver for heterodyne IR spectroscopy at the communication wavelength of 1.5 μm (200 THz) by use of a superconducting hot-electron bolometer. The results are important for the resolution of narrow spectral molecular lines in the near-IR range for the study of astronomical objects, as well as for quantum optical tomography and fiber-optic sensing. Receiver configuration as well as fiber-to-detector light coupling designs are discussed. Light absorption of the superconducting detectors was enhanced by nano-optical antennas, which were coupled to optical fibers. An intermediate frequency (IF) bandwidth of about 3 GHz was found in agreement with measurements at 300 GHz, and a noise figure of about 25 dB was obtained that was only 10 dB above the quantum limit.

Title Phase-slip lines as a resistance mechanism in transition-edge sensors Type (down) 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 Non-uniform absorption of terahertz radiation on superconducting hot electron bolometer microbridges Type (down) Journal Article
Year 2014 Publication Appl. Phys. Lett. Abbreviated Journal <ef><bf><bc>Appl. Phys. Lett.
Volume 104 Issue Pages 052605(1-4)
Keywords NbN HEB mixers, local oscillator power, RF nonuniform absorption
Abstract We interpret the experimental observation of a frequency-dependence of superconducting hot electron bolometer (HEB) mixers by taking into account the non-uniform absorption of the terahertz radiation on the superconducting HEB microbridge. The radiation absorption is assumed to be proportional to the local surface resistance of the HEB microbridge, which is computed using the Mattis-Bardeen theory. With this assumption the dc and mixing characteristics of a superconducting niobium-nitride (NbN) HEB device have been modeled at frequencies below and above the equilibrium gap frequency of the NbN film.

Title RF heating efficiency of the terahertz superconducting hot-electron bolometer Type (down) Journal Article
Year 2014 Publication arXiv Abbreviated Journal arXiv
Volume 1404.5276 Issue Pages 1-4
Keywords superconducting hot-electron bolometer mixer, HEB, NbN, distributed model, HEB model, HEB mixer model, heat balance equa-tions, conversion gain, RF heating efficiency, noise temperature, simulation, Euler method
Abstract We report results of the numerical solution by the Euler method of the system of heat balance equations written in recurrent form for the superconducting hot-electron bolometer (HEB) embedded in an electrical circuit. By taking into account the dependence of the HEB resistance on the transport current we have been able to calculate rigorously the RF heating efficiency, absorbed local oscillator (LO) power and conversion gain of the HEB mixer. We show that the calculated conversion gai nis in excellent agreement with the experimental results, and that the substitution of the calculated RF heating efficiency and absorbed LO power into the expressions for the conversion gain and noise temperature given by the analytical small-signal model of the HEB yields excellent agreement with the corresponding measured values

Title Waveguide Hot Electron Bolometer Mixer development for upGREAT Type (down) Journal Article
Year 2014 Publication Kosma Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract We report on our hot electron bolometer mixer development for the focal plane array extension upGREAT of the German Receiver for Astronomy at Terahertz frequencies (GREAT) operated on SOFIA. For (up)GREAT we have pushed the waveguide technology to 4.7 THz and present RF performance results. We describe the RF planar circuit design, the micro fabrication employing NbN microbridges on 2 µm thin Si membrane substrates and the machining technology used for the waveguides. One of the 4.7 THz mixers was used in the high frequency channel on GREAT in May 2014 and performed as expected from the laboratory characterization.
