| Abstract(in English) | We are developing a time-of-flight mass-spectrometry (TOF-MS) system using a superconducting stripline ion detector (SSID) and single-flux-quantum (SFQ) time-to-digital converter (TDC). In this study, we implemented a TOF-MS system composed of an SSID and an SFQ readout circuit to demonstrate the TOF-MS of biomolecules. An SFQ circuit, which consists of a current discriminator, a Josephson transmission line and an SFQ-DC converter, was fabricate using the AIST Nb standard process, and integrated with a meander-shaped NbN SSID of the area of 200μm square in a cryostat. Dependence of the dark count rate of the SSID on the bias current measured by the SFQ readout circuit exhibits the exponential dependence in the wide range, which shows the validity of the SFQ readout circuits. Mass spectrum of biomolecules, whose weight is 1296, was measured using the system by the matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization method and a clear corresponding peak was observed. |
