Microstructure analysis of bismuth absorbers for transition-edge sensor X-ray microcalorimeters
Daikang Yan, Ralu Divan, Lisa M. Gades +16
Transition-edge sensors (TESs) as microcalorimeters offer high resolving power, owning to their sharp response and low operating temperature. In the hard X-ray regime and above, th…
Eliminating the non-Gaussian spectral response of X-ray absorbers for transition-edge sensors
Daikang Yan, Ralu Divan, Lisa M. Gades +16
Transition-edge sensors (TES) as microcalorimeters for high-energy-resolution X-ray spectroscopy are often fabricated with an absorber made of materials with high Z (for X-ray stop…
L-Edge Spectroscopy of Dilute, Radiation-Sensitive Systems Using a Transition-Edge-Sensor Array
Charles J. Titus, Michael L. Baker, Sang Jun Lee +24
We present X-ray absorption spectroscopy and resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) measurements on the iron L-edge of 0.5 mM aqueous ferricyanide. These measurements demonstra…
Counting Near Infrared Photons with Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors
W. Guo, X. Liu, Y. Wang +8
We demonstrate photon counting at 1550 nm wavelength using microwave kinetic inductance detectors (MKIDs) made from TiN/Ti/TiN trilayer films with superconducting transition temper…
A Reassessment of Absolute Energies of the X-ray L Lines of Lanthanide Metals
J. W. Fowler, B. K. Alpert, D. A. Bennett +12
We introduce a new technique for determining x-ray fluorescence line energies and widths, and we present measurements made with this technique of 22 x-ray L lines from lanthanide-s…
