Doped Semiconductor Devices for sub-MeV Dark Matter Detection
Peizhi Du, Daniel Egaña-Ugrinovic, Rouven Essig +1
Dopant atoms in semiconductors can be ionized with meV energy depositions, allowing for the design of low-threshold detectors. We propose using doped semiconductor targets…

The Migdal Effect in Semiconductors for Dark Matter with Masses below 100 MeV
Kim V. Berghaus, Angelo Esposito, Rouven Essig +1
Dark matter scattering off a nucleus has a small probability of inducing an observable ionization through the inelastic excitation of an electron, called the Migdal effect. We use…
