摘要
We observed a sweep rate dependence of the quantum capacitance in a single Cooper-Pair box used as the readout of a Quantum Capacitance Detector. A model was developed that fits the data over five orders of magnitude in sweep rate and optical signal power and provides a natural calibration of the absorbed power. We are thereby able to measure the noise equivalent power of the detector as a function of absorbed power. We find that it is shot-noise-limited in detecting 1.5 THz photons with absorbed power ranging from 1 x 10(-22) W to 1 x 10(-17) W. (C) 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.
