TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the detection latency of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) and showed that the key to achieving low timing jitter is the use of materials with low latency.

TL;DR: The design, fabrication, and characterization of UV SNSPDs operating at wavelengths between 250 and 370 nm are described, which make them ideal for applications in trapped-ion quantum information processing, lidar studies of the upper atmosphere, UV fluorescent-lifetime imaging microscopy, and photon-starved UV astronomy.

TL;DR: This work achieves quantum teleportation of time-bin qubits at the telecommunication wavelength of 1536.5 nm using fiber-coupled devices and measures teleportation fidelities that are consistent with an analytical model of the system, which includes realistic imperfections.

TL;DR: In this article, superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors based on tungsten silicide have been developed for applications in the mid-infrared requiring sub-nanosecond timing, ultra-high gain stability, low dark counts and high efficiency.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the design, fabrication, and characterization of UV SNSPDs operating at wavelengths between 250 and 370 nm, with active areas up to 56 ${\mu}$m in diameter, 70 - 80% efficiency, timing resolution down to 60 ps FWHM, blindness to visible and infrared photons, and dark count rates of ~ 0.25 counts/hr for a 56 $m diameter pixel.
