Scalable cryogenic readout circuit for a superconducting nanowire single-photon detector system
Scalable cryogenic readout circuit for a superconducting nanowire single-photon detector system
The superconducting nanowire single photon detector (SNSPD) is a leading technology for quantum information science applications using photons, and they are finding increasing uses in photon-starved classical imaging applications. Critical detector characteristics, such as timing resolution (jitter), reset time and maximum count rate, are heavily influenced by the readout electronics …
