Title Effect of magnetic field on the photon detection in thin superconducting meander structures Type Journal Article
Year 2014 Publication Phys. Rev. B Abbreviated Journal Phys. Rev. B
Volume 89 Issue 10 Pages 104513 (1 to 7)
Keywords NbN SSPD, SNSPD
Abstract We have studied the influence of an externally applied magnetic field on the photon and dark count rates of meander-type niobium nitride superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors. Measurements have been performed at a temperature of 4.2 K, and magnetic fields up to 250 mT have been applied perpendicularly to the meander plane. While photon count rates are field independent at weak applied fields, they show a strong dependence at fields starting from approximately ±25 mT. This behavior, as well as the magnetic field dependence of the dark count rates, is in good agreement with the recent theoretical model of vortex-assisted photon detection and spontaneous vortex crossing in narrow superconducting lines. However, the local reduction of the superconducting free energy due to photon absorption, which is the fitting parameter in the model, increases much slower with the photon energy than the model predicts. Furthermore, changes in the free-energy during photon counts and dark counts depend differently on the current that flows through the meander. This indicates that photon counts and dark counts occur in different parts of the meander.

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.

Title Способ фильтрации фонового излучения инфракрасного диапазона Type Patent
Year 2014 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue RU 2510056 C1 Pages
Keywords
Abstract Изобретение относится к способам уменьшения интенсивности фонового излучения инфракрасного диапазона. Способ фильтрации фонового излучения инфракрасного диапазона, падающего на сверхпроводниковый однофотонный детектор, включает передачу излучения инфракрасного диапазона с длиной волны 0,4-1,8 микрометров на сверхпроводниковый однофотонный детектор при помощи одномодового волокна, частично находящегося при температуре 4,0-4,4 К. При этом длина охлаждаемого участка одномодового волокна составляет 0,2-3,5 м. Технический результат заключается в повышении надежности работы фотонных детекторов. 2 з.п. ф-лы.

Title Способ прецизионного позиционирования чувствительного элемента фотонного детектора Type Patent
Year 2014 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue RU 2506664 C1 Pages
Keywords
Abstract Изобретение относится к способам, позволяющим производить совмещение фотонных детекторов относительно оптического излучения. Способ прецизионного позиционирования чувствительного элемента фотонного детектора относительно амплитудно-модулированного оптического излучения включает смещение чувствительного элемента фотонного детектора постоянным током с последующей регистрацией электрического сигнала, возникающего на контактах детектора на частоте модуляции излучения. Полученный при этом сигнал используют как параметр, определяющий качество позиционирования. Обеспечивается повышение технико-эксплуатационных характеристик детектора.

Title Tunable frequency-selective surface based on superconducting split-ring resonators Type Conference Article
Year 2014 Publication 8th Metamaterials Abbreviated Journal 8th Metamaterials
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords superconducting split-ring resonators
Abstract We study a possibility to use the 2D superconducting metamaterial as a tunable frequency-selective surface (FSS). The proposed FSS is made of sub-wavelength size (l/14) metamaterial unit cells, where a split-ring resonator is embedded in a small iris aperture in a metal plane. The split-ring resonator is made of NbN film, and its resonance frequency is tuned by the temperature of the sample, changing the kinetic inductance of NbN film. The Ansoft HFSS simulation predicts the FSS tuning range of about 10-20 %. The developed superconducting FSS may be used as a tunable band-pass filter or modulator.
