Abstract
A detailed survey of the entire fabrication technique for conducting and superconducting nanostructures has been given in the last part of this book. Now we discuss the physics of the superconducting and the metallic state of the manufactured (see e.g. Figs. 1.4&8.1) niobium-based nanoscaled devices that are indeed capable of single-photon detection (see Fig. 13.5).
