| Abstract | The spectral detection efficiency and the dark count rate of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPD) have been studied systematically on detectors made from thin NbN films with different chemical compositions. Reduction of the nitrogen content in the 4 nm thick NbN films results in a decrease of the dark count rates more than two orders of magnitude and in a red shift of the cut-off wavelength of the hot-spot SNSPD response. The observed phenomena are explained by an improvement of uniformity of NbN films that has been confirmed by a decrease of resistivity and an increase of the ratio of the measured critical current to the depairing current. The latter factor is considered as the most crucial for both the cut-off wavelength and the dark count rates of SNSPD. Based on our results we propose a set of criteria for material properties to optimize SNSPD in the infrared spectral region. VC 2012 American Institute of Physics.

| Title | An ultra-fast superconducting Nb nanowire single-photon detector for soft x-rays | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2012 | Publication |

| Keywords | SSPD, SNSPD, x-ray, Nb | ||||
| Abstract | Although superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) are well studied regarding the detection of infrared/optical photons and keV-molecules, no studies on continuous x-ray photon counting by thick-film detectors have been reported so far. We fabricated a 100 nm thick niobium x-ray SNSPD (an X-SNSPD) and studied its detection capability of photons with keV-energies in continuous mode. The detector is capable to detect photons even at reduced bias currents of 0.4%, which is in sharp contrast to optical thin-film SNSPDs. No dark counts were recorded in extended measurement periods. Strikingly, the signal amplitude distribution depends significantly on the photon energy spectrum.VC |

| Title | Detection efficiency of a spiral-nanowire superconducting single-photon detector | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2012 | Publication |

| Volume | Issue | Pages | |||
| Keywords | Critical current, Nanoscale devices, Superconducting photodetectors. | ||||
| Abstract | We investigate the detection efficiency of a spiral layout of a Superconducting Nanowire Single-Photon Detector (SNSPD). The design is less susceptible to the critical current reduction in sharp turns of the nanowire than the conventional meander design. Detector samples with different nanowire width from 300 to 100 nm are patterned from a 4 nm thick NbN film deposited on sapphire substrates. The critical current IC at 4.2 K for spiral, meander, and simple bridge structures is measured and compared. On the 100 nm wide samples, the detection efficiency is measured in the wavelength range 400-1700 nm and the cut-off wavelength of the hot-spot plateau is determined. In the optical range, the spiral detector reaches a detection efficiency of 27.6%, which is ~1.5 times the value of the meander. In the infrared range the detection efficiency is more than doubled. | ||||

| Title | Superconducting single-photon counting system for optical experiments requiring time-resolution in the picosecond range | Type | Journal Article | ||
| Year | 2012 | Publication |

| Keywords | SSPD, picosecond, time-resolution | ||||
| Abstract | We have developed a cryogenic measurement system for single-photon counting, which can be used in optical experiments requiring high time resolution in the picosecond range. The system utilizes niobium nitride superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors which are integrated in a timecorrelated single-photon counting (TCSPC) setup. In this work, we describe details of the mechanical design, the electrical setup, and the cryogenic optical components. The performance of the complete system in TCSPC mode is tentatively benchmarked using 140 fs long laser pulses at a repetition frequency of 75MHz. Due to the high temporal stability of these pulses, the measured time resolution of 35 ps (FWHM) is limited by the timing jitter of the measurement system. The result was crosschecked in a Coherent Anti-stokes Raman Scattering (CARS) setup, where scattered pulses from a β-barium borate crystal have been detected with the same time resolution. |

| Abstract | Монография посвящена обзору исследований влияния эффектов электронного беспорядка на электронное взаимодействие в металлах, сверхпроводниках, полупроводниках, а также в различных низкоразмерных структурах. Актуальность поднятых в монографии вопросов определяется интенсивным развитием нанотехнологий, созданием новых наноструктурированных материалов и уникальных наноэлементов для электроники и фотоники. Упругое электронное рассеяние на границах наноструктур качественно меняет взаимодействие электронов с фонолами, что, безусловно, должно учитываться при проектировании соответствующей элементной базы. Прикладная часть работы посвящена контролируемой модификации электронных процессов для оптимизации новых наносенсоров на основе электронного разогрева в сверхпроводниковых и полупроводниковых структурах. Монография предназначена для студентов старших курсов, аспирантов и начинающих следователей, работающих в области сверхпроводниковой наноэлектроники. | ||||
