Abstract

Because of the possibility of high efficiency and high rate detection of single photons with low dark counts, there is increasing interest in using superconducting optical photon detectors in a variety of applications in quantum information science and technology. I will describe our work on two types of superconducting detectors, the Superconducting Single Photon Detector (SSPD) and superconducting Transition-Edge Sensor (TES).
