Towards Integrated High-Tc Superconducting Nanowire Hot Electron Bolometers — •Martin A. Wolff1,2, Matvey Lyatti1,2, Simone Ferrari1,2, Carsten Schuck1,2, and Wolfram H. P.

The idea of exploiting the optical response of superconductors for nanophotonic applications such as bolometers, transition edge sensors and single-photon detectors is an active and rapidly growing field of research. Hot-electron bolometers (HEBs) feature very attractive performance such as low-noise and high-speed photon detection with applications in astronomy and quantum communication. However, cryogenic environments at temperatures below 4 K are inevitable for conventional low-temperature superconducting materials. Hence, there is an increasing interest for exploring the potential of high-Tc superconductors for this kind of application, thus significantly reducing the cryogenic requirements for operating HEBs.
Here we present the characterization of high-Tc YBa2Cu3O7−x (YBCO) nanowires on a transparent SrTiO3 (STO) substrate realized by a focused ion beam (FIB) milling technique. The fabricated nanowires are then used as bolometers to demonstrate their potential for photon detection.
