Title:
RESETTABLE PHOTON NUMBER RESOLVING DETECTOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/054459
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The various embodiments described herein include methods, devices, and systems for detecting photons. In one aspect, an electrical circuit includes a superconducting photon detector that transitions from a superconducting state to a non-superconducting state in response to an incident photon; and a reset circuit coupled in parallel with the superconducting photon detector, the reset circuit comprising a resistor and an inductor coupled together in series, where the resistor is composed of a metal layer and a layer of superconducting material.
