Characterization of Silicon-Membrane TES Microcalorimeters for Large-Format X-ray Spectrometers with Integrated Microwave SQUID Readout

Avirup Roy, Robinjeet Singh, Joel C. Weber +17

We present the electro-thermal characterization of transition-edge sensor (TES) detectors suspended on Si membranes fabricated using a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafer. The use of…

Lithographic integration of TES microcalorimeters with SQUID multiplexer circuits for large format spectrometers

Robinjeet Singh, Avirup Roy, Daniel Becker +12

Arrays of hundreds or thousands of low temperature detectors have been deployed for many experiments, both bolometers for long wavelength applications and calorimeters for shorter…

Semiconductor thermal and electrical properties decoupled by localized phonon resonances

Bryan T. Spann, Joel C. Weber, Matt D. Brubaker +8

Thermoelectric materials convert heat into electricity through thermally driven charge transport in solids, or vice versa for cooling. To be competitive with conventional energy-ge…

ASCENT - A balloon-borne hard X-ray imaging spectroscopy telescope using transition edge sensor microcalorimeter detectors

Fabian Kislat, Daniel Becker, Douglas Bennett +26

Core collapse supernovae are thought to be one of the main sources in the galaxy of elements heavier than iron. Understanding the origin of the elements is thus tightly linked to o…

A tabletop x-ray tomography instrument for nanometer-scale imaging: demonstration of the 1,000-element transition-edge sensor subarray

Paul Szypryt, Nathan Nakamura, Daniel T. Becker +28

We report on the 1,000-element transition-edge sensor (TES) x-ray spectrometer implementation of the TOMographic Circuit Analysis Tool (TOMCAT). TOMCAT combines a high spatial reso…

Design of a 3000-pixel transition-edge sensor x-ray spectrometer for microcircuit tomography

Paul Szypryt, Douglas A. Bennett, William J. Boone +28

Feature sizes in integrated circuits have decreased substantially over time, and it has become increasingly difficult to three-dimensionally image these complex circuits after fabr…

Nanoscale Three-Dimensional Imaging of Integrated Circuits using a Scanning Electron Microscope and Transition-Edge Sensor Spectrometer

Nathan Nakamura, Paul Szypryt, Amber L. Dagel +30

X-ray nanotomography is a powerful tool for the characterization of nanoscale materials and structures, but is difficult to implement due to competing requirements on X-ray flux an…

The 511-CAM Mission: A Pointed 511 keV Gamma-Ray Telescope with a Focal Plane Detector Made of Stacked Transition Edge Sensor Microcalorimeter Arrays

Farzane Shirazi, Md. Arman Hossen, Daniel Becker +18

The 511 keV gamma-ray emission from the galactic center region may fully or partially originate from the annihilation of positrons from dark matter particles with electrons from th…
