The best receivers coupled with single-mode fiber have the system quantum efficiency of ⁓85{\%}. The receivers have a 100 ps time resolution and a few nanoseconds dead time that allows them to operate at megahertz counting rate. Implementation of the multi-element architecture for creation of the superconducting single photon detectors with increased sensitive area allows to create the high efficiency receivers coupled with multi-mode fibers and with preserving of the all advantages of superconducting photon counters.", optnote="exported from refbase (https://db.rplab.ru/refbase/show.php?record=1795), last updated on Sat, 03 Jul 2021 17:53:02 -0500", doi="10.1117/12.2589157", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1117/12.2589157" }
