For visible and near IR light (0.56 --- 1.3$\mu$m wavelengths) the detector exhibits 30{\%} quantum efficiency saturation value limited by the NbN film absorption and extremely low level of dark counts (2x10 -4 s -1). The detector manifested single-photon counting up to 6 $\mu$m wavelength with the quantum efficiency reaching 10 -2 {\%} at 5.6 $\mu$m and 3 K temperature.", optnote="exported from refbase (https://db.rplab.ru/refbase/show.php?record=1476), last updated on Mon, 17 May 2021 20:21:26 -0500", opturl="https://www.nrao.edu/meetings/isstt/2005.shtml" }
