Abstract:
The various embodiments described herein include methods, devices, and systems for fabricating and operating photodetector circuitry. In one aspect, a photon detector system includes: (1) a first superconducting wire having a first threshold superconducting current; (2) a second superconducting wire having a second threshold superconducting current; (3) a resistor coupled to the first wire and the second wire; (4) current source(s) coupled to the first wire and configured to supply a current that is below the second threshold current; and (3) a second circuit coupled to the second wire. In response to receiving light at the first wire, the first wire transitions from a superconducting state to a non-superconducting state. In response to receiving light at the second wire while the first wire is in the non-superconducting state, the second wire transitions to a non-superconducting state, redirecting the first current to the second circuit.

Claim (Index 15):
The system of  claim 14 , wherein a combination of the first current and one or more photoelectrons generated by the second superconducting wire upon receiving the light of second intensity is greater than the second threshold superconducting current.
