Large-area NbN superconducting nanowire avalanche photon detectors with saturated detection efficiency

Large-area NbN superconducting nanowire avalanche photon detectors with saturated detection efficiency

Superconducting circuits comprising SNSPDs placed in parallel—superconducting nanowire avalanche photodetectors, or SNAPs—have previously been demonstrated to improve the output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) by increasing the critical current. In this work, we employ a 2-SNAP superconducting circuit w...
