Towards Low-Energy Electron High-Resolution Spectroscopy with Transition-Edge Sensors

R. Ammendola, A. Apponi, G. Benato +62

We present a study of the energy resolution of transition-edge sensors (TESs) for the detection of electrons in the 100~eV kinetic energy range. The TES is a Ti-Au bilayer with an…

Detection of Low-Energy Electrons with Transition-Edge Sensors

Carlo Pepe, Benedetta Corcione, Francesco Pandolfi +9

We present the first detection of electrons with kinetic energy in the 100 eV range with transition-edge sensors (TESs). This has been achieved with a m Ti…

Dark counts in optical superconducting transition-edge sensors for rare-event searches

Laura Manenti, Carlo Pepe, Isaac Sarnoff +12

Superconducting transition-edge sensors (TESs) are a type of quantum sensor known for its high single-photon detection efficiency and low background. This makes them ideal for part…
