- The phenomenon of dark counts in nanostripes of different superconductor systems such as high-temperature superconducting YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7-x and superconductor/ferromagnet hybrids consisting of either NbN/NiCu or YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7-x /L 0.7 Sr 0.3 MnO 3 bilayers have been investigated. For NbN/NiCu the rate of dark-count transients have been reduced with respect to pure NbN nanostripes and the events were dominated by a single vortex entry from the edge of the stripe. In the case of nanostripes based on YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7-x , we have found that thermal activation of vortices was also, apparently, responsible for triggering dark-count signals.
