  Title Possibilities of acoustic thermometry for controlling targeted drug delivery Type Journal Article
  Year 2015 Publication Acoust. Phys. Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume (up) 61 Issue 4 Pages 488-493  
  Keywords acoustic thermometry, liposome suspension, thermography  
  Abstract Model acoustic thermometry experiments were conducted during heating of an aqueous liposome suspension. Heating was done to achieve the liposome phase transition temperature. At the moment of the phase transition, the thermal acoustic signal achieved a maximum and decreased, despite continued heating. During subsequent cooling of the suspension, when lipids again passed through the phase transition point, the thermal acoustic signal again increased, despite a reduction in temperature. This effect is related to an increase in ultrasound absorption by the liposome suspension at the moment of the lipid phase transition. The result shows that acoustic thermography can be used to control targeted delivery of drugs mixed in thermally sensitive liposomes, the integrity of which is violated during heating to the phase transition temperature.

  Title Understanding the electrical response and sensing mechanism of carbon-nanotube-based gas sensors Type Journal Article
  Year 2015 Publication Carbon Abbreviated Journal Carbon  
  Volume (up) 87 Issue Pages 330-337  
  Keywords carbon nanotubes, CNT detectors, field effect transistors, FET  
  Abstract Gas sensors based on carbon nanotube field effect transistors (CNFETs) have outstanding sensitivity compared to existing technologies. However, the lack of understanding of the sensing mechanism has greatly hindered progress on calibration standards and customization of these nano-sensors. Calibration requires identifying fundamental transistor parameters and establishing how they vary in the presence of a gas. This work focuses on modeling the electrical response of CNTFETs in the presence of oxidizing (NO2) and reducing (NH3) gases and determining how the transistor characteristics are affected by gas-induced changes of contact properties, such as the Schottky barrier height and width, and by the doping level of the nanotube. From the theoretical fits of the experimental transfer characteristics at different concentrations of NO2 and NH3, we find that the CNTFET response can be modeled by introducing changes in the Schottky barrier height. These changes are directly related to the changes in the metal work function of the electrodes that we determine experimentally, independently, with a Kelvin probe. Our analysis yields a direct correlation between the ON – current and the changes in the electrode metal work function. Doping due to molecules adsorbed at the carbon-nanotube/metal interface also affects the transfer characteristics.

  Title Quasiparticle recombination in hotspots in superconducting current-carrying nanowires Type Journal Article
  Year 2015 Publication Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. B  
  Volume (up) 92 Issue 6 Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract We describe a kinetic model of recombination of non-equilibrium quasiparticles generated by single photon absorption in superconducting current-carrying nanowires. The model is developed to interpret two-photon detection experiments in which a single photon does not possess sufficient energy for breaking superconductivity at a fixed low bias current. We show that quasiparticle self- recombination in relaxing hotspot dominates diffusion expansion effects and explains the observed strong bias current, wavelength and temperature dependencies of hotspot relaxation in tungsten silicide superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors.

  Title Vortex-assisted mechanism of photon counting in a superconducting nanowire single-photon detector revealed by external magnetic field Type Journal Article
  Year 2015 Publication Phys. Rev. B Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. B  
  Volume (up) 92 Issue 10 Pages 104503 (1 to 9)  
  Keywords SSPD, SNSPD  
  Abstract We use an external magnetic field to probe the detection mechanism of a superconducting nanowire single-photon detector. We argue that the hot belt model (which assumes partial suppression of the superconducting order parameter Δ across the whole width of the superconducting nanowire after absorption of the photon) does not explain observed weak-field dependence of the photon count rate (PCR) for photons with λ=450nm and noticeable decrease of PCR (with increasing the magnetic field) in a range of the currents for photons with wavelengths λ=450–1200nm. Found experimental results for all studied wavelengths can be explained by the vortex hot spot model (which assumes partial suppression of Δ in the area with size smaller than the width of the nanowire) if one takes into account nucleation and entrance of the vortices to the photon induced hot spot and their pinning by the hot spot with relatively large size and strongly suppressed Δ.

  Title Application of superconducting hot-electron bolometer mixers for terahertz-band astronomy Type Journal Article
  Year 2015 Publication IEICE Trans. Electronics Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume (up) 98 Issue 3 Pages 196-206  
  Keywords HEB mixer applications, HEB applications  
  Abstract Recently, a next-generation heterodyne mixer detector – a hot electron bolometer (HEB) mixer employing a superconducting microbridge – has gradually opened up terahertz-band astronomy. The surrounding state-of-the-art technologies including fabrication processes, 4 K cryostats, cryogenic low-noise amplifiers, local oscillator sources, micromachining techniques, and spectrometers, as well as the HEB mixers, have played a valuable role in the development of super-low-noise heterodyne spectroscopy systems for the terahertz band. The current developmental status of terahertz-band HEB mixer receivers and their applications for spectroscopy and astronomy with ground-based, airborne, and satellite telescopes are presented.

  Title New generation of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors Type Conference Article
  Year 2015 Publication EPJ Web of Conferences Abbreviated Journal EPJ Web of Conferences  
  Volume (up) 103 Issue Pages 01006 (1 to 2)  
  Keywords SSPD, SNSPD  
  Abstract We present an overview of recent results for new generation of infrared and optical superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) that has already demonstrated a performance that makes them devices-of-choice for many applications. SNSPDs provide high efficiency for detecting individual photons while keeping dark counts and timing jitter minimal. Besides superior detection performance over a broad optical bandwidth, SNSPDs are also compatible with an integrated optical platform as a crucial requirement for applications in emerging quantum photonic technologies. By embedding SNSPDs in nanophotonic circuits we realize waveguide integrated single photon detectors which unite all desirable detector properties in a single device.

  Title Response of graphene based gated nanodevices exposed to THz radiation Type Conference Article
  Year 2015 Publication EPJ Web of Conferences Abbreviated Journal EPJ Web of Conferences  
  Volume (up) 103 Issue Pages 10003 (1 to 2)  
  Keywords graphene field-effect transistor, FET  
  Abstract In this work we report on the response of asymmetric graphene based devices to subterahertz and terahertz radiation. Our devices are made in a configuration of a field-effect transistor with conduction channel between the source and drain electrodes formed with a CVD-grown graphene. The radiation is coupled through a spiral antenna to source and top gate electrodes. Room temperature responsivity of our devices is close to the values that are attractive for commercial applications. Further optimization of the device configuration may result in appearance of novel terahertz radiation detectors.

  Title Countermeasures against blinding attack on superconducting nanowire detectors for QKD Type Conference Article
  Year 2015 Publication EPJ Web Conf. Abbreviated Journal EPJ Web Conf.  
  Volume (up) 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 Waveguide-integrated single- and multi-photon detection at telecom wavelengths using superconducting nanowires Type Journal Article
  Year 2015 Publication Appl. Phys. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Appl. Phys. Lett.  
  Volume (up) 106 Issue 15 Pages 151101 (1 to 5)  
  Keywords SSPD, SNSPD  
  Abstract We investigate single- and multi-photon detection regimes of superconducting nanowire detectors embedded in silicon nitride nanophotonic circuits. At near-infrared wavelengths, simultaneous detection of up to three photons is observed for 120 nm wide nanowires biased far from the critical current, while narrow nanowires below 100 nm provide efficient single photon detection. A theoretical model is proposed to determine the different detection regimes and to calculate the corresponding internal quantum efficiency. The predicted saturation of the internal quantum efficiency in the single photon regime agrees well with plateau behavior observed at high bias currents.
