Abstract
We have measured the time of the optical response of a 350-GHz radiation detector based on a superconductor–insulator–normal metal–insulator–superconductor tunnel structure with a suspended normal-metal bridge integrated into a planar log-periodic antenna. The transient characteristics of the detector were recorded when irradiated by a fast cryogenic blackbody source with a rise time of the order of microseconds. For this purpose, a short intense heating pulse was fed to an emitting NiCr film radiation source with a low heat capacity. The measured response time was 1.8 ± 0.5 μs at a bolometer electron temperature of 0.17 K, with a detection sensitivity of 10–17–10–18 W Hz–1/2 being potentially achievable.
