Multiplexed readout of kinetic inductance bolometer arrays
Hannu Sipola, Juho Luomahaara, Andrey Timofeev +4
Kinetic inductance bolometer (KIB) technology is a candidate for passive sub-millimeter wave and terahertz imaging systems. Its benefits include scalability into large 2D arrays an…
Superconducting transition detector in power amplification mode: a tool for cryogenic multiplexing
P. Helistö, J. Hassel, A. Luukanen +1
We demonstrate that substantial power gain can be obtained with superconducting transition detectors. We describe the properties of the detector as a power amplifier theoretically.…
Ultrasensitive Proximity Josephson Sensor with Kinetic Inductance Read-Out
F. Giazotto, T. T. Heikkila, G. Pepe. P. Helisto +2
We propose a mesoscopic kinetic-inductance radiation detector based on a long superconductor--normal metal--superconductor Josephson junction. The operation of this proximity Josep…
Opportunities for mesoscopics in thermometry and refrigeration: Physics and applications
Francesco Giazotto, Tero T. Heikkila, Arttu Luukanen +2
This review presents an overview of the thermal properties of mesoscopic structures. The discussion is based on the concept of electron energy distribution, and, in particular, on…
Fluctuation superconductivity limited noise in a transition-edge sensor
A. Luukanen, K. M. Kinnunen, A. K. Nuottajärvi +3
In order to investigate the origin of the until now unaccounted excess noise and to minimize the uncontrollable phenomena at the transition in X-ray microcalorimeters we have devel…
Performance of cryogenic microbolometers and calorimeters with on-chip coolers
D. V. Anghel, A. Luukanen, J. P. Pekola
Astronomical observations of cosmic sources in the far-infrared and X-ray bands require extreme sensitivity. The most sensitive detectors are cryogenic bolometers and calorimeters…
