Radioactivity induced dark count rate for single near-infrared photon detection with a tungsten transition edge sensor at 80 mK
N. Bastidon, D. Horns
The intrinsic background count rate of tungsten superconducting transition-edge sensors (TES) is low, and the calorimeters using these sensors can resolve the energy of single phot…
