We present a novel photon number resolving detector based on the series array of superconducting nanowires, each shunted by an integrated resistor. The device can successfully discriminate between 1-4 absorbed photons in telecom-wavelength optical pulses.

Abstract

We present a novel photon number resolving detector based on the series array of superconducting nanowires, each shunted by an integrated resistor. The device can successfully discriminate between 1-4 absorbed photons in telecom-wavelength optical pulses.
