UHV Arc Deposition of Superconducting Niobium Films
Recently the UHV arc technology was proposed as a possible alternative for depositing thin superconducting films of pure niobium on the inside surface of RF cavities for particle accelerators. The paper describes status of research on deposition of superconducting films for RF accelerating cavities. New UHV arc based devices with planar and cylindrical niobium cathodes are presented. The main r...
متن کاملNiobium Superconducting Nanowire Single-Photon Detectors
We investigate the performance of superconducting nanowire photon detectors fabricated from ultra-thin Nb. A direct comparison is made between these detectors and similar nanowire detectors fabricated from NbN. We find that Nb detectors are significantly more susceptible than NbN to thermal instability (latching) at high bias. We show that the devices can be stabilized by reducing the input res...
متن کاملAnalytical microscopy of iron-based superconducting materials
Inhomogeneity and phase separation in unconventional superconducting materials is a topic of increasing interest, as the competition between phases with different types of ordering is thought to play an important role in the emergence of the high temperature superconducting state. A wide range of experimental techniques are available for investigating the crystallography of these complex materi...
متن کاملSuperconducting niobium nanowire single photon detectors
We have fabricated and tested single photon detectors based on a current biased superconducting niobium nanowire patterned into a meander. The detectors are fabricated from high quality, ultra high vacuum sputtered niobium thin films on a sapphire substrate. For detection of single optical photons, we show that the superconductor’s intrinsic kinetic inductance does not limit the reset time of t...
متن کاملCrystal structure and superconducting properties of hexagonal lithium-niobium oxynitride.
A hexagonal oxynitride (Li(0.88)□(0.12))Nb(3.0)(O(0.13)N(0.87))(4) was synthesized through ammonia nitridation of LiNb(3)O(8). The structural analysis revealed that this oxynitride consists of alternate stacking of octahedral and prismatic layers with different Li/Nb ratios: significant amounts of Li and Nb atoms (Li/Nb = 43/57) coexist in the octahedral layer, while the prismatic site is prefe...
