论文摘要
超导纳米线单光子检测器（SNSPD）是一种量子限制的超导型光学检测器，基于单个光子的库珀对破坏效应，单个光子与较高的检测效率，较低的深色计数速率，较高的计数速率和较低的计时率相比，与较低的计时抖动相比，与较低的计时抖动相比。 SNSPD已在量子信息处理中广泛应用，包括量子密钥分布和光学量子计算。在这篇综述中，我们介绍了来自量子信息的单光子检测器的要求，以及与SNSPD相关的原理，关键指标，最新性能问题和其他问题。 SNSPD在量子信息方面的代表性应用也将涵盖。
The superconducting nanowire single-photon detector (SNSPD) is a quantum-limit superconducting optical detector based on the Cooper-pair breaking effect by a single photon, which exhibits a higher detection efficiency, lower dark count rate, higher counting rate, and lower timing jitter when compared with those exhibited by its counterparts. SNSPDs have been extensively applied in quantum information processing, including quantum key distribution and optical quantum computation. In this review, we present the requirements of single-photon detectors from quantum information, as well as the principle, key metrics, latest performance issues and other issues associated with SNSPD. The representative applications of SNSPDs with respect to quantum information will also be covered.
