Microstructure analysis of bismuth absorbers for transition-edge sensor X-ray microcalorimeters
Daikang Yan, Ralu Divan, Lisa M. Gades +16
Transition-edge sensors (TESs) as microcalorimeters offer high resolving power, owning to their sharp response and low operating temperature. In the hard X-ray regime and above, th…
Microwave SQUID Multiplexer demonstration for Cosmic Microwave Background Imagers
B. Dober, D. T. Becker, D. A. Bennett +10
Key performance characteristics are demonstrated for the microwave SQUID multiplexer (MUX) coupled to transition edge sensor (TES) bolometers that have been optimized for cosmic…
Eliminating the non-Gaussian spectral response of X-ray absorbers for transition-edge sensors
Daikang Yan, Ralu Divan, Lisa M. Gades +16
Transition-edge sensors (TES) as microcalorimeters for high-energy-resolution X-ray spectroscopy are often fabricated with an absorber made of materials with high Z (for X-ray stop…
A Reassessment of Absolute Energies of the X-ray L Lines of Lanthanide Metals
J. W. Fowler, B. K. Alpert, D. A. Bennett +12
We introduce a new technique for determining x-ray fluorescence line energies and widths, and we present measurements made with this technique of 22 x-ray L lines from lanthanide-s…
