Accelerating Surface Radiation Content to Investigate the Impact of Radon Progeny on Superconducting Qubits
Sagar S. Poudel, Dylan J. Temples, Ryan Linehan +8
Ionizing radiation in the form of , , , and additional high-energy particles can induce decoherence via phonon and quasiparticle poisoning in superconducting qubits. Re…
Characterization of Aluminum Microwave SQUID Multiplexers for CENS Detection
James Amidei, Antoine Armatol, Corinne Augier +92
We present the design, fabrication, and characterization of an aluminum-based six-channel microwave SQUID multiplexer (MUX) prototype for transition-edge sensor (TES) readout i…
The critical role of substrates in mitigating the power-efficiency trade-off in near-field thermophotovoltaics
Kartika N. Nimje, Julien Legendre, Michela F. Picardi +2
Near-field thermophotovoltaic systems can achieve ultra-high power densities, however, this often comes at the cost of reduced efficiency. We show that this power-efficiency trade-…
Characterization of mini-CryoCube detectors from the Ricochet experiment commissioning at the Institut Laue-Langevin
Antoine Armatol, Corinne Augier, Louis Bailly-Salins +83
The Ricochet experiment aims to measure the coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering process from antineutrinos emitted by a research nuclear reactor operated by the Institut L…
