Measuring the Impact Ionization and Charge Trapping Probabilities in SuperCDMS HVeV Phonon Sensing Detectors
F. Ponce, W. Page, P. L. Brink +12
A 0.93 gram cm SuperCDMS silicon HVeV detector operated at 30 mK was illuminated by 1.91 eV photons using a room temperature pulsed laser coupled to the…
High-field Spatial Imaging of Charge Transport in Silicon at Low Temperature
C. Stanford, R. A. Moffatt, N. A. Kurinsky +9
We present direct imaging measurements of charge transport across a 1 cm x 1 cm x 4 mm-thick crystal of high purity silicon (15 k-cm) at temperatures of 5 K and 500 mK. We…
Exclusion Limits on Hidden-Photon Dark Matter near 2 neV from a Fixed-Frequency Superconducting Lumped-Element Resonator
A. Phipps, S. E. Kuenstner, S. Chaudhuri +10
We present the design and performance of a simple fixed-frequency superconducting lumped-element resonator developed for axion and hidden photon dark matter detection. A rectangula…

SuperCDMS Collaboration, R. Agnese, T. Aralis +95
Future direct searches for low-mass dark matter particles with germanium detectors, such as SuperCDMS SNOLAB, are expected to be limited by backgrounds from radioactive isotopes ac…
Thermal detection of single e-h pairs in a biased silicon crystal detector
R. K. Romani, P. L. Brink, B. Cabrera +11
We demonstrate that individual electron-hole pairs are resolved in a 1 cm by 4 mm thick silicon crystal (0.93 g) operated at 35 mK. One side of the detector is patterned…
Imaging the Oblique Propagation of Electrons in Germanium Crystals at Low Temperature and Low Electric Field
R. A. Moffatt, B. Cabrera, B. M. Corcoran +11
Excited electrons in the conduction band of germanium collect into four energy minima, or valleys, in momentum space. These local minima have highly anisotropic mass tensors which…
