  1. Coupling light to superconductive photon counters

    … to fabricate SNSPDs, and has demonstrated device-detection-efficiency above 50% at near infrared wavelengths. However, one remaining challenge must be taken - efficiently coupling light into the detector. This step is difficult because of the small active area of the SNSPD and its low temperature …

  2. Quantum information applications of frequency upconversion

    … we are able to achieve near unit conversion efficiency. We use this conversion process to create high-efficiency infrared single-photon detectors by upconverting infrared photons to visible ones and using efficient silicon avalanche photo diodes to detect the upconverted photon. We have …

  3. Efficient superconducting-nanowire single-photon detectors and their applications in quantum optics

    … technology for infrared photon counting and detection. Their advantages include good device efficiency, fast operating speed, low dark-count rate, low timing jitter, free running mode, and no afterpulsing. The challenges to be addressed prior to real applications are cryogenic operations, …
