In Situ Interferometric Spatial Mapping Of A Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector Array
Chris Albert, Ritoban Basu Thakur, Farzad Faramarzi +7
We present a method of spatially mapping microwave kinetic inductance detector (MKID) arrays, in a dark setup. MKIDs are superconducting natively multiplexed resonators which enabl…
