Niobium Silicon alloys for Kinetic Inductance Detectors
M. Calvo, A. D'Addabbo, A. Monfardini +8
We are studying the properties of Niobium Silicon amorphous alloys as a candidate material for the fabrication of highly sensitive Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KID), optimized for…
Purification of molybdenum oxide, growth and characterization of medium size zinc molybdate crystals for the LUMINEU program
V. N. Shlegel, L. Berge, R. S. Boiko +45
The LUMINEU program aims at performing a pilot experiment on neutrinoless double beta decay of 100Mo using radiopure ZnMoO4 crystals operated as scintillating bolometers. Growth of…
Axion searches with the EDELWEISS-II experiment
E. Armengaud, Q. Arnaud, C. Augier +62
We present new constraints on the couplings of axions and more generic axion-like particles using data from the EDELWEISS-II experiment. The EDELWEISS experiment, located at the Un…
Latest Progress on the QUBIC Instrument
A. Ghribi, J. Aumont, E. S. Battistelli +60
QUBIC is a unique instrument that crosses the barriers between classical imaging architectures and interferometry taking advantage from both for high sensitivity and systematics mi…
Background studies for the EDELWEISS dark matter experiment
E. Armengaud, C. Augier, A. Benoît +55
The EDELWEISS-II collaboration has completed a direct search for WIMP dark matter using cryogenic Ge detectors (400 g each) and 384 kgdays of effective exposure. A cross-se…
Effect of annealing on the superconducting properties of a-Nb(x)Si(1-x) thin films
O. Crauste, A. Gentils, F. Couëdo +5
a-Nb(x)Si(1-x) thin films with thicknesses down to 25 Å have been structurally characterized by TEM (Transmission Electron Microscopy) measurements. As-deposited or annealed films…
