Enhancement of photo-responsivity of small gap, multiple tunnelling superconducting tunnel junctions due to quasiparticle multiplication
G. Brammertz, A. G. Kozorezov, R. den Hartog +5
We recently predicted the formation of a highly non-equilibrium quasiparticle (qp) distribution in low TC multiple tunnelling superconducting tunnel junctions (STJs) [1]. The situa…

Optical STJ Observations of the Crab Pulsar
M. A. C. Perryman, F. Favata, A. Peacock +2
We report the first observations of an astronomical object using a superconducting tunnel junction (STJ) device, a pixel detector with intrinsic energy resolution in the optical wa…
