Title Transient increase of the energy gap of superconducting NbN thin films excited by resonant narrow-band terahertz pulses Type Journal Article
Year 2013 Publication Phys. Rev. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. Lett.
Volume 110 Issue 26 Pages 267003 (1 to 5)
Keywords NbN thin films, energy gap
Abstract Observations of radiation-enhanced superconductivity have thus far been limited to a few type-I superconductors (Al, Sn) excited at frequencies between the inelastic scattering rate and the superconducting gap frequency 2Delta/h. Utilizing intense, narrow-band, picosecond, terahertz pulses, tuned to just below and above 2Delta/h of a BCS superconductor NbN, we demonstrate that the superconducting gap can be transiently increased also in a type-II dirty-limit superconductor. The effect is particularly pronounced at higher temperatures and is attributed to radiation induced nonthermal electron distribution persisting on a 100 ps time scale.

Volume Issue Pages
Keywords Josephson qubit, quantum computer, Rabi cycle, Landau-Zener effect, multiphoton transitions, single qubits
Abstract Монография посвящена актуальным проблемам физики сверхпроводниковых джозефсоновских кубитов — макроскопических квантовых структур, перспективных элементов квантовых компьютеров. Приведены элементы квантовой механики кубитов, фундаментальные свойства сверхпроводников, физика классических и квантовых джозефсоновских структур. Рассмотрены основные типы сверхпроводниковых кубитов. Изложены результаты экспериментальных и теоретических исследований квантовых когерентных явлений в джозефсоновских кубитах. Рассмотрены спектроскопия энергетиче­ских состояний, осцилляции Раби, эффект Ландау-Зинера, многофотонные переходы в одиночних кубитах и в системах связанных кубитов. Изучено влияние шумов на потоковый кубит и на его классический аналог.

Для специалистов в области теоретической и прикладной физики, сверхпроводниковой микроэлектроники, а также аспирантов и студентов физико-технических специальностей.

Title Electrodynamic response and local tunneling spectroscopy of strongly disordered superconducting TiN films Type Journal Article
Year 2013 Publication Phys. Rev. B Abbreviated Journal
Volume 88 Issue 18 Pages 180505 (1 to 5)
Keywords strongly disordered superconducting TiN films, microwave resonators
Abstract We have studied the electrodynamic response of strongly disordered superconducting TiN films using microwave resonators, where the disordered superconductor is the resonating element in a high-quality superconducting environment of NbTiN. We describe the response assuming an effective pair-breaking mechanism modifying the density of states and compare this to local tunneling spectra obtained using scanning tunneling spectroscopy. For the least disordered film (kFl=8.7, Rs=13Ω), we find good agreement, whereas for the most disordered film (kFl=0.82, Rs=4.3kΩ), there is a strong discrepancy, which signals the breakdown of a model based on uniform properties.

Title IR single-photon receiver based on ultrathin NbN superconducting film Type Journal Article
Year 2013 Publication Rus. J. Radio Electron. Abbreviated Journal Rus. J. Radio Electron.
Volume Issue 5 Pages
Keywords SSPD, SNSPD
Abstract We present our recent results in research and development of superconducting single-photon detector (SSPD). We achieved the following performance improvement: first, we developed and characterized SSPD integrated in optical cavity and enabling its illumination from the face side, not through the substrate, second, we improved the quantum efficiency of the SSPD at around 3 μm wavelength by reduction of the strip width to 40 nm, and, finally, we improved the detection efficiency of the SSPD-based single-photon receiver system up to 20% at 1550 nm and extended its wavelength range beyond 1800 nm by the usage of the fluoride ZBLAN fibres.

Title Recent nanowire superconducting single-photon detector optimization for practical applications Type Journal Article
Year 2013 Publication IEEE Trans. Appl. Supercond. Abbreviated Journal IEEE Trans. Appl. Supercond.
Volume 23 Issue 3 Pages 2201204 (1 to 4)
Keywords SSPD, SNSPD
Abstract In this paper, we present our approaches to the development of fiber-coupled superconducting single photon detectors with enhanced photon absorption. For such devices we have measured detection efficiency in wavelength range from 500 to 2000 nm. The best fiber coupled devices exhibit detection efficiency of 44.5% at 1310 nm wavelength and 35.5% at 1550 nm at 10 dark counts per second.
