Post-fabrication trimming of a 1024-pixel, single-photon counting, Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector array with a pixel pitch of 150 micron
Wilbert Ras-Vinke, Hessel Schulte, David J. Thoen +5
Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors are superconducting resonators capable of single-photon counting with energy resolving capability at visible and near-infrared wavelengths. T…
gateau: an observation simulator for ground-based submillimeter astronomy with integral field units and kinetic inductance detectors
A. Moerman, N. Soshnin, S. A. Brackenhoff +7
Submillimeter (submm) integral field units (IFUs) utilising kinetic inductance detectors (KIDs) are a promising instrument architecture for the study of galaxies, galaxy clusters,…
Recombination of localized quasiparticles in disordered superconductors
Steven A. H. de Rooij, Remko Fermin, Kevin Kouwenhoven +6
Disordered superconductors offer new impedance regimes for quantum circuits, enable a pathway to protected qubits, and can improve superconducting detectors due to their high kinet…
Geometry dependence of TLS noise and loss in a-SiC:H parallel plate capacitors for superconducting microwave resonators
K. Kouwenhoven, G. P. J. van Doorn, B. T. Buijtendorp +6
Parallel plate capacitors (PPC) significantly reduce the size of superconducting microwave resonators, reducing the pixel pitch for arrays of single photon energy-resolving kinetic…
