Article Description

We report the fabrication of a MgB nanowire single-photon detector (SSPD or SNSPD) with a meander structure and its optical response. In-situ passivation of AlN is quite effective for both protecting the MgB surface from oxidation and from damage during the Ar ion milling process. Meander patterns of 10 × 10 μm with the line widths between 225 to 135 nm are obtained without degradation. The meander with the line width of 135 nm exhibits the capacity for detecting single photons at λ = 1550 nm. Copyright © 2013 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.
