The structures are meander-type, 10-nm thick, and 200-nm wide stripes and were operated at 4.2 K. We have shown that the NbN devices can count single-photon pulses with below 100-ps time resolution. The response signal pulse width was about 150 ps, and the system jitter was measured to be 35 ps. %K SSPD jitter %K SNSPD jitter %R 10.1109/TASC.2003.813675 %U https://doi.org/10.1109/TASC.2003.813675 %P 180-183
