“…Detection Efficiency. We assume the use of conventional Si-avalanche photo-diodes (APDs) with standard 40 % quantum efficiency (QE); this value is consistent with that of COTS devices, and this could be improved by using superconducting nanowire single photon detectors (SNSPDs) but at greater expense and SWaP, albeit on the ground [67].…”

“…In the past 5 years several international groups (UK, USA and China) have attempted to meet these requirements through proof-of-principle demonstrations [24][25][26][27], an example of which is displayed in figure 1. Each has a similar cryogenic architecture of a closed cycle regenerative cryocooler which pre-cools a Joule-Thomson Cryocooler (JTC) that provides the base temperature for the SNSPDs.…”
