1. A single-photon detector for detecting an incident light, comprising:
a substrate;
a multilayered reflector disposed on the substrate; and
at least one single-crystalline superconducting wire disposed on the multilayered reflector;
wherein the incident light is irradiated on the at least one superconducting wire and/or is reflected to the at least one superconducting wire by the multilayered reflector.
