Lorentz Center Workshop on Nanowire Superconducting Single-Photon Detectors
Working Group 1 is co-organising a workshop on the "Nanowire Superconducting Single-Photon Detectors", to be held at the Lorentz Center in Leiden, Netherlands, from November 28 to December 1, 2016. Event website : http://lorentzcenter.nl/lc/web/2016/835/info.php3?wsid=835&venue=Oort Workshop group picture Context Superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) consist of a thin and narrow superconducting nanowire sensitive to single photons. SNSPDs have a wide range of both technological and scientific uses, which makes them ideal for a series of applications ranging from cancer treatment to deep-space communication and quantum cryptography.…
