摘要：
In this paper, we report on the terahertz (THz) direct detection performance of two superconducting niobium nitride (NbN) hot-electron bolometers (HEBs) of different micro-bridge sizes. At the optimum bias point, the two HEB devices show similar thermal conductance (similar to 80nW/K). The measured responsivity coincides well with the electrical responsivity calculated from the measured current-voltage (IV) curves at different bath temperatures. The noise equivalent power (NEP) of the two HEB devices is found to be about 10(-12)W/root Hz.
