Abstract: Hotspot relaxation time (τth) is one of the essential parameter which defines the maximum count rate of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs). We studied the τth for NbN-based SNSPDs on various substrates using the two-photon… read more here.

Abstract: The hotspot relaxation time (τth) was systematically studied on superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) made from ultrathin NbN films with different substrates and chemical compositions. The τth values were measured to be between 9.2 ps… read more here.
