Waveguide-integrated superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors with photon number resolution — •Martin A.

Superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) have recently developed into the leading detector technology with single-photon sensitivity as they offer efficient counting with high repetition rate, short timing jitter and low dark count rate [1]. The integration of these detectors with wide-band Si3N4 nanophotonics [2] allows for implementing quantum optical experiments both at visible and infrared wavelengths on-chip. However, many multi-photon applications such as linear optical quantum computing (LOQC), quantum emitter characterization, light detection and ranging (LIDAR) would benefit from detectors with photon number resolving (PNR) capabilities. Here we employ a parallel resistor approach [3] to realize PNR superconducting nanowire detectors. We fabricate detectors from niobium nitride (NbN) on Si3N4 waveguides that allow for resolving up to four simultaneously arriving photons at telecommunication wavelength (1550 nm). [1] S.
