可见光和近红外区域性能最高的单光子探测器之一是超导纳米带光子探测器（SNSPD或SSPD），通常使用NbN或NbTiN作为超导体。使用其他超导体可以显着改善例如工作温度和计数率特性。本文简要回顾了使用各种超导体的 SNSPD 的潜力、特性、薄膜生长和纳米加工工艺的现状。关键词: 单光子探测器, SNSPD, SSPD, 超导体
One of the highest performing single-photon detectors in the visible and near-infrared regions is the superconducting nanostrip photon detector (SNSPD or SSPD), which usually uses NbN or NbTiN as the superconductor. Using other superconductors may significantly improve, for example, the operating temperature and count rate characteristics. This paper briefly reviews the current state of the potential, characteristics, thin film growth, and nanofabrication process of SNSPD using various superconductors. key words: single-photon detector, SNSPD, SSPD, superconductor
