Multi-photon detection using a conventional superconducting nanowire single-photon detector

Journal Article (Journal Article)

We present the first evidence of multi-photon detection using a conventional superconducting nanowire single-photon detector, indicating number resolution up to four photons. The observed multi-photon detection statistics are consistent with the predictions of our model.
