The SPT-3G+ receiver design
H. Athreya, Z. Ahmed, J. E. Austermann +71
We present the thermo-mechanical design of the cryostat and camera optics for SPT-3G+, a new receiver being developed for the South Pole Telescope (SPT). The receiver consists of 1…
Low-loss Si-based Dielectrics for High Frequency Components of Superconducting Detectors
M. Lisovenko, Z. Pan, P. S. Barry +7
Silicon-based dielectric is crucial for many superconducting devices, including high-frequency transmission lines, filters, and resonators. Defects and contaminants in the amorphou…
Quasiparticle Generation-Recombination Noise in the Limit of Low Detector Volume
J. Li, P. S. Barry, T. Cecil +8
We have measured the quasiparticle generation-recombination (GR) noise in aluminium lumped element kinetic inductors with a wide range of detector volumes at various temperatures.…
Noise Optimization for MKIDs with Different Design Geometries and Material Selections
Z. Pan, K. R. Dibert, J. Zhang +13
The separation and optimization of noise components is critical to microwave-kinetic inductance detector (MKID) development. We analyze the effect of several changes to the lumped-…
Measurement of Dielectric Loss in Silicon Nitride at Centimeter and Millimeter Wavelengths
Z. Pan, P. S. Barry, T. Cecil +11
This work presents a suite of measurement techniques for characterizing the dielectric loss tangent across a wide frequency range from 1 GHz to 150 GHz using the same test ch…
Fabrication Development for SPT-SLIM, a Superconducting Spectrometer for Line Intensity Mapping
T. Cecil, C. Albert, A. J. Anderson +18
Line Intensity Mapping (LIM) is a new observational technique that uses low-resolution observations of line emission to efficiently trace the large-scale structure of the Universe…
