Abstract

Transition edge sensors have demonstrated near unity detection efficiency of single photons and photon number resolving ability over a wide wavelength range ( 700 −1600 nm). They are also known to be slow, with timing jitter values in the 100 ns range, and the best current values in the 20 ns range. We report measured jitter times below 5 ns for a tungsten TES. This is particularly relevant for experiments clocked from an 80 MHz Ti:Sa laser.
