The quasiparticle-heating effect of electromagnetic radiation on a niobium superconducting film in the resistive state is nonselective over a broad frequency range, from 1010 to 1015 Hz. The role played by electron-electron collisions in shaping the nonequilibrium quasiparticle distribution function is discussed.
