Simulation and Measurement of Out-of-Band Resonances for the FDM Readout of a TES Bolometer
Amin Aminaei, Hiroki Akamatsu, Ad Nieuwenhuizen +10
With applications in cosmology, infrared astronomy and CMB survey, frequency-division multiplexing (FDM) proved to be a viable readout for transition-edge sensors (TES). We investi…
Performance of the SRON Ti/Au Transition Edge Sensor X-ray Calorimeters
Martin de Wit, Luciano Gottardi, Kenichiro Nagayoshi +7
In the early 2030s, ESAs new X-ray observatory, Athena, is scheduled to be launched. It will carry two main instruments, one of which is the X-ray Integral Field Unit (X-IFU), an X…
Susceptibility study of TES micro-calorimeters for X-ray spectroscopy under FDM readout
Davide Vaccaro, Hiroki Akamatsu, Luciano Gottardi +15
We present a characterization of the sensitivity of TES X-ray micro-calorimeters to environmental conditions under frequency-domain multiplexing (FDM) readout. In the FDM scheme, e…
Mitigation of the Magnetic Field Susceptibility of Transition Edge Sensors using a Superconducting Groundplane
Martin de Wit, Luciano Gottardi, Marcel L. Ridder +7
Transition edge sensor (TES) microcalorimeters and bolometers are used for a variety of applications. The sensors are based on the steep temperature-dependent resistance of the nor…
Optical performance of prototype horn-coupled TES bolometer arrays for SAFARI
Michael D. Audley, Gert de Lange, Jian-Rong Gao +3
The SAFARI Detector Test Facility is an ultra-low background optical testbed for characterizing ultra-sensitive prototype horn-coupled TES bolmeters for SAFARI, the grating spectro…
