About

Superconducting nanowire detector development was driven largely by quantum science during the last decade, but emerging high-energy physics applications are motivating a new wave of breakthroughs. They are capable of detecting photons (X-ray to far-infrared), low energy electrons, ions and neutral molecules and most recently have been tested for relativistic particle detection. This talk will start with a review of the operating principle of these detectors and how they are fabricated and integrated into systems. We will then review some of the state-of-the-art measurements as well as their current and future potential.
