JI J. Opt. Technol. PY 2013 BP 435 VL 80 IS 7 DI 10.1364/JOT.80.000435 DE SSPD; quantum efficiency AB The detection regimes of a superconducting single-photon detector have been investigated. A technique is proposed for determining the regions in which “pure regimes” predominate. Based on experimental data, the dependences of the internal quantum efficiency on the bias current are determined in the one-, two-, and three-photon detection regimes. ER
