Abstract
Ultra-thin films of superconducting tantalum nitride are deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering on heated sapphire substrates. The critical temperature T C=10.25 K is reached for films thicker than 10 nm. A superconducting nanowire single-photon detector in the form of a meander line with a width of 110 nm was made from 5 nm thick TaN film. The detector had a transition temperature of 8.3 K and a critical current density of 4 MA/cm2 at 4.2 K. A photon detection efficiency of 20% has been obtained for the detector with a filling fa
