摘要

噪声等效温差（NETD）表示红外探测器可分辨的最小温差。噪声等效温差越小，传感器记录微小温差的能力就越强。在这项工作中，我们提出了一种利用具有超高灵敏度的超导纳米线单光子探测器（SNSPD）实现高温度分辨率的策略。我们推导出了计算光子计数型探测器 NETD 的模型，并将其应用于基于 SNSPD 的装置。通过实验，我们获得了低至 0.65 mK 的 NETD，这受到了环境本底辐射的限制，计算得出所需的红外辐射功率小于 1 pW。此外，这种 SNSPD 的固有 NETD 估计小于 0.1 mK。这项工作利用 SNSPD 展示了亚毫开氏度的温度分辨率，为未来具有高温度分辨率的远程红外热成像铺平了道路。

Sub-millikelvin-resolved superconducting nanowire single-photon detector operates with sub-pW infrared radiation power

The noise equivalent temperature difference (NETD) indicates the minimum temperature difference resolvable by an infrared detector. The lower the NETD is, the better the sensor can register small temperature differences. In this work, we proposed a strategy to achieve a high temperature resolution using a superconducting nanowire single-photon detector (SNSPD) with ultrahigh sensitivity. We deduced the model for calculating the NETD of a photon-counting type detector and applied it to our SNSPD-based setup. Experimentally, we obtained a NETD as low as 0.65 mK, which is limited by the background radiation of the environment, and the required infrared radiation power is calculated to be less than 1 pW. Furthermore, the intrinsic NETD of this SNSPD is estimated to be less than 0.1 mK. This work demonstrated a sub-mK temperature resolution with the SNSPD, paving the way for future remote infrared thermal imaging with high temperature resolution.
