Hot electron energy relaxation time in vanadium nitride superconducting film structures under THz and IR radiation

Abstract The paper presents the experimental results of studying the dynamics of electron energy relaxation in structures made of thin (d ≈ 6 nm) disordered superconducting vanadium nitride (VN) films converted to a resistive state by high-frequency radiation and transport current. Under conditions...
