BACKGROUND
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Physical Measurement Laboratory (PML) Quantum Measurement Division is developing single-photon devices for applications in optical metrology and quantum networking. Single-photon detectors, such as single-photon avalanche diodes and superconducting nanowire detectors, are microfabricated devices operated at low or cryogenic temperatures and convert a single photon into an electrical signal. These devices need to be operated in a hermetic package or environment and require an electrical wire-bond connection between the planar surface of the detector and whatever conductor exits the hermetic environment. Furthermore, single-photon detectors can provide picosecond timing precision, and the design of this wire bond connection, its parasitic inductance and capacitance, can have an impact on the performance of the device. NIST not only designs, assembles, and tests advanced single-photon detection systems, NIST also modifies and repairs existing single-photon detectors to achieve higher performance. For all these activities a versatile wire bonder is necessary. Moreover, the Quantum Measurement Division has recently received a single-photon detector from NIST-Boulder that requires repair. Until this device is repaired its use to advance NIST-s quantum networking research is impossible.
NIST requires a versatile benchtop wire bonder for device prototyping and repair, including a compatible stereo microscope system and work illumination system, a complete heated-work-holder system, tools necessary for setting up, using, and maintaining the wire bonder including a gram gauge, and training on the tool-s use and maintenance.
