Nanowire Detectors

Discover the cutting-edge technology of our superconducting nanowire detectors, designed for high-efficiency and low-noise performance.
Benchmark performance specs that provide the reliable foundation for your most sensitive optical experiments.
  • High Efficiency, Low Noise
Reach >90% system efficiency with ultra-low noise at <2.5K. Standard dark counts of <1/s (NIR) and <100/s (Telecom), with <1/s specialized telecom options.
  • Self-Aligned
Our nanowire devices are self-aligned to optical fiber for high efficiency coupling.
  • Customizable
Customizable optimization from 450–2200 nm. Tailor your system for narrow-band precision or versatile broadband detection to suit your specific spectral needs.
  • Photon Number Resolving (PNR)
Differentiate between single and multiple photon events with intrinsic device response. Essential for advanced quantum characterization and high-fidelity counting. Quantum Opus holds the exclusive license for PNR protected under U.S. Patent No. 11,274,952.
  • Ultra-Low Timing Jitter
Achieve exceptional temporal resolution with <50 ps FWHM typical jitter. Specialized configurations are available to drive timing precision below 20 ps.
  • High-Speed Counting Rates
Rapid <50 ns typical recovery time. High-flux configurations offer 10 ns recovery and multi-pixel devices capable of reaching GHz count rates.
  • Scalable Multi-Element Arrays
Single-pixel to 16-element standard arrays, precision-coupled to single or multi-mode fiber. A versatile architecture for complex spatial or high-count tasks.
