A 24-pixel photon-number-resolving-detector (PNRD) based on superconducting nanowires in a series configuration is demonstrated. Distinct output levels corresponding to the detection of 0-25 photons are observed, due to the high signal-to-noise ratio.

Abstract

A 24-pixel photon-number-resolving-detector (PNRD) based on superconducting nanowires in a series configuration is demonstrated. Distinct output levels corresponding to the detection of 0-25 photons are observed, due to the high signal-to-noise ratio.
