Detection of Pulsed Terahertz Radiation by a Superconducting Bolometer in the Process of Parametric Down-Conversion
摘要
Abstract
The statistical distributions of output signals and their derivatives have been investigated for a superconducting bolometer exposed to weak photon pulses at a frequency of 1 THz. The terahertz pulses were generated via strongly nondegenerate parametric down-conversion in a LiNbO
