Fast response of superconducting hot-electron bolometers with a twin-slot nano-antenna for mid-infrared operation

In this study, the use of nano-antennas to improve the response performance of infrared detectors is proposed, and the design and fabrication of antennas that operate in the infrared range is demonstrated. Prototypes of a mid-infrared superconducting hot-electron...
