Title Superconducting single-photon detector made of MoSi film Type Journal Article
Year 2014 Publication (down) Supercond. Sci. Technol. Abbreviated Journal Supercond. Sci. Technol.
Volume 27 Issue 9 Pages 095012
Keywords SSPD, SNSPD
Abstract We fabricated and characterized nanowire superconducting single-photon detectors made of 4 nm thick amorphous Mox Si1−x films. At 1.7 K the best devices exhibit a detection efficiency (DE) up to 18% at 1.2 $\mu {\rm m}$ wavelength of unpolarized light, a characteristic response time of about 6 ns and timing jitter of 120 ps. The DE was studied in wavelength range from 650 nm to 2500 nm. At wavelengths below 1200 nm these detectors reach their maximum DE limited by photon absorption in the thin MoSi film.

Title NbN single-photon detectors with saturated dependence of quantum efficiency Type Journal Article
Year 2018 Publication (down) Supercond. Sci. Technol. Abbreviated Journal Supercond. Sci. Technol.
Volume 31 Issue 3 Pages 035011 (1 to 8)
Keywords NbN SSPD, SNSPD
Abstract The possibility of creating NbN superconducting single-photon detectors with saturated dependence of quantum efficiency (QE) versus normalized bias current was investigated. It was shown that the saturation increases for the detectors based on finer films with a lower value of Rs300/Rs20. The decreasing of Rs300/Rs20 was related to the increasing influence of quantum corrections to conductivity of superconductors and, in turn, to the decrease of the electron diffusion coefficient. The best samples have a constant value of system QE 94% at Ib/Ic ~ 0.8 and wavelength 1310 nm.

Title Superconducting NbN-nanowire single-photon detectors capable of photon number resolving Type Conference Article
Year 2008 Publication (down) Supercond. News Forum Abbreviated Journal Supercond. News Forum
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords PNR SSPD, SNSPD
Abstract We present our latest generation of ultra-fast superconducting NbN single-photon detectors (SSPD) capable of photon-number resolving (PNR). The novel SSPDs combine 10 μm x 10 μm active area with low kinetic inductance and PNR capability. That resulted in significantly reduced photoresponse pulse duration, allowing for GHz counting rates. The detector’s response magnitude is directly proportional to the number of incident photons, which makes this feature easy to use. We present experimental data on the performance of the PNR SSPDs. These detectors are perfectly suited for fibreless free-space telecommunications, as well as for ultra-fast quantum cryptography and quantum computing.

Title IR single-photon receiver based on ultrathin NbN superconducting film Type Journal Article
Year 2013 Publication (down) 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 The limitation of noise equivalent power by background radiation for infrared superconducting single photon detectors coupled to standard single mode optical fibers Type Journal Article
Year 2015 Publication (down) Rus. J. Radio Electron. Abbreviated Journal Rus. J. Radio Electron.
Volume Issue 5 Pages
Keywords NbN SSPD
Abstract We investigated the minimum level of the dark count rates and noise equivalent power of superconducting single photon detectors coupled to standard single mode optical fibers. We found that background radiation limits the minimum level of the dark count rates. We also proposed the effective method for reducing background radiation out of the required spectral range of the detector. Measured noise equivalent power of detector reaches 8.9×10-19 W×Hz1/2 at a wavelength of 1.55 μm and quantum efficiency 35%.
