Low-Frequency Noise Performance of Microstrip-Coupled Lumped-Element Aluminum KIDs using Hydrogenated Amorphous Silicon Parallel-Plate Capacitors for NEW-MUSIC
Simon Hempel-Costello, Andrew D. Beyer, Dan Cunnane +11
We present measurements of the low-frequency noise of microstrip-coupled, lumped-element aluminum kinetic inductance detectors that use hydrogenated amorphous silicon parallel-plat…
Design of a Six-band, 2.4-Octave (80--420 GHz) Hierarchically Summed Phased-Array Slot-Dipole Antenna Array for NEW-MUSIC
Xiaolan Huang, Shibo Shu, Miao Li +2
The Next-generation Extended Wavelength Multi-band Sub/millimeter Inductance Camera (NEW-MUSIC), located on the Leighton Chajnantor Telescope (LCT), will be the first six-band tran…
Improved Modeling of Quasi-Static Thermal and Optical Response of Lumped-Element Aluminum Manganese KIDs
Adriana Gavidia, Sunil Golwala, Andrew D. Beyer +11
We report on the optical characterization of the AlMn kinetic inductance detectors (KIDs) in development for use in the Next-generation Extended Wavelength-MUltiband Sub/millimeter…
Low two-level-system noise in hydrogenated amorphous silicon
Fabien Defrance, Andrew D. Beyer, Jordan Wheeler +2
At sub-Kelvin temperatures, two-level systems (TLS) present in amorphous dielectrics source a permittivity noise, degrading the performance of a wide range of devices using superco…
