Abstract

In this paper, we present an overview of the devolvement of niobium nitride (NbN)-based superconducting nanowire single-photon detector (SNSPD) array for applications in SIMIT. These applications include high-speed interleaved nanowire arrays for optical quantum communication, large-active-area arrays for light detection and ranging (LIDAR), and free-space-coupled arrays for LIDAR and imaging. A recent development in fiber-array-coupled SNSPD array for quantum information processing is also presented.
