Light interference detection on-chip by integrated SNSPD counters

A SWIFTS device (Stationary Wave Integrated Fourier Transform Spectrometer) has been realized with an array of 24 Superconducting Nanowire Single Photon Detectors (SNSPD), on-chip integrated under a Si3N4 monomode rib-waveguide interferometer. Colored light around 1.55μm wavelength is introduced thr...
