The combined properties of high efficiency,low noise, and fast speed of SNSPDs permit its applications ranging from long-distance quantum teleportation to moonto-earth optical communications. Here we briefly discussed recent progress of SNSPDs, in particular(1) tungstensilicide SNSPDs,(2) waveguide-integrated SNSPDs, and(3) a few applied demonstrations.展开更多
