Superconducting transition edge sensors with phononic thermal isolation
Emily A. Williams, Stafford Withington, Christopher N. Thomas +2
The sensitivity of a low-noise superconducting transition edge sensor (TES) is determined by the thermal conductance of the support structure that connects the active elements of t…

Elastic Interferometers as Phononic Filters for Thermal Isolation in Low-Noise Transition Edge Sensors
Djelal Osman, Stafford Withington, David J. Goldie +1
In order to achieve low Noise-Equivalent-Powers (NEP < 1 aW Hz) Transition Edge Sensors (TES) require high levels of thermal isolation between the superconducting bilayer…
