Development of ion-beam sputtered silicon nitride thin films for low-noise mirror coatings of gravitational-wave detectors
A. Amato, M. Bazzan, G. Cagnoli +32
Brownian thermal noise of thin-film coatings is a fundamental limit for high-precision experiments based on optical resonators such as gravitational-wave interferometers. Here we p…
Innovative remotely-controlled bending device for thin silicon and germanium crystals
D. De Salvador, S. Carturan, A. Mazzolari +10
Steering of negatively charged particle beams below 1 GeV has demonstrated to be possible with thin bent silicon and germanium crystals. A newly designed mechanical holder was used…
Characterization and modeling of thermally-induced doping contaminants in high-purity Germanium
Virginia Boldrini, Gianluigi Maggioni, Sara Carturan +6
High purity Ge (HPGe) is the key material for gamma ray detector production. Its high purity level (< 2x10^(-4) ppb of doping impurity) has to be preserved in the bulk during the p…
