Brittle fracture down to femto-Joules - and below

J. Astrom, P. Di Stefano, F. Proebst +2

We analyze large sets of energy-release data created by stress-induced brittle fracture in a pure sapphire crystal at close to zero temperature where stochastic fluctuations are mi…

Fracture Processes Observed with A Cryogenic Detector

J. Astrom, P. C. F. Di Stefano, F. Proebst +15

In the early stages of running of the CRESST dark matter search using sapphire detectors at very low temperature, an unexpectedly high rate of signal pulses appeared. Their origin…

A Textured Silicon Calorimetric Light Detector

P. C. F. Di Stefano, T. Frank, G. Angloher +8

We apply the standard photovoltaic technique of texturing to reduce the reflectivity of silicon cryogenic calorimetric light detectors. In the case of photons with random incidence…
