Title Single-photon superconducting detectors for practical high-speed quantum cryptography Type Miscellaneous
Year 2001 Publication OFCC/ICQI Abbreviated Journal OFCC/ICQI
Volume Issue Pages Pa3
Keywords NbN SSPD, SNSPD, QKD, quantum cryptography
Abstract We have developed an ultrafast superconducting single-photon detector with negligible dark counting rate. The detector is based on an ultrathin, submicron-wide NbN meander-type stripe and can detect individual photons in the visible to near-infrared wavelength range at a rate of at least 10 Gb/s. The above counting rate allows us to implement the NbN device to unconditionally secret quantum key distRochester, New Yorkribution in a practical, high-speed system using real-time Vernam enciphering.

Title Superconducting optical single-photon detectors Type Conference Article
Year 2004 Publication CLEO/QELS Abbreviated Journal CLEO/QELS
Volume Issue Pages IThD1
Keywords SSPD, QE, jitter, dark counts
Abstract We review the development of superconducting single-photon detectors. The devices are characterized by experimental quantum efficiency of ~8% for infrared photons, counting rate ~2 GHz, 18 ps jitter, and <0.01 per second dark counts.

Title Single-photonics at telecom wavelengths using nanowire superconducting single photon detectors Type Conference Article
Year 2007 Publication CLEO/QELS Abbreviated Journal CLEO/QELS
Volume Issue Pages QTuF6 (1 to 2)
Keywords SSPD, SNSPD
Abstract Novel single-photon detectors based on NbN superconducting nanostructures promise orders-of- magnitude improvement over InGaAs APDs. We demonstrate this improved performance for the first time by measuring the g(2)(τ) on single photon states produced by a quantum dot at telecom wavelength.

Title Overview of recent results for superconducting NbN terahertz and optical detectors and mixers Type 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.
