Growth of alpha-beta phase W thin films over steep Al topography in a confocal sputtering machine
John Mark Kreikebaum, Blas Cabrera, Jeff Yen +4
We report on thin-film processing improvements in the fabrication of superconducting quasiparticle-trap-assisted electrothermal-feedback transition-edge sensors (QETs) used in the…
Measurement Of Quasiparticle Transport In Aluminum Films Using Tungsten Transition-Edge Sensors
J. J. Yen, B. Shank, B. A. Young +8
We report new experimental studies to understand the physics of phonon sensors which utilize quasiparticle diffusion in thin aluminum films into tungsten transition-edge-sensors (T…
Nonlinear Optimal Filter Technique For Analyzing Energy Depositions In TES Sensors Driven Into Saturation
B. Shank, J. J. Yen, B. Cabrera +7
We present a detailed thermal and electrical model of superconducting transition edge sensors (TESs) connected to quasiparticle (qp) traps, such as the W TESs connected to Al qp tr…
Search for Low-Mass WIMPs with SuperCDMS
R. Agnese, A. J. Anderson, M. Asai +92
We report a first search for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) using the background rejection capabilities of SuperCDMS. An exposure of 577 kg-days was analyzed for WIMP…
