We developed a fiber-coupled superconducting nanowire single-photon detector system in a close-cycled cryo-cooler and achieved 24% and 22% system detection efficiencies at wavelengths of 1550 and 1315 nm, respectively. The maximum dark count rate was similar to 1000 counts/s. (C) 2009 Optical Society of America
