We report on the use of a kinetic-inductance traveling-wave parametric amplifier (KITWPA)
as the first amplifier in the readout chain of a microwave superconducting quantum …

Single-photon detectors based on the superconducting transition-edge sensor are used in a
number of visible to near-infrared applications, particularly for photon-number-resolving …

Transition Edge Sensors (TESs) are amongst the most sensitive cryogenic detectors and
can be easily optimized for the detection of massive particles or photons ranging from X-rays …

We show three-dimensional reconstructions of a region of an integrated circuit from a 130
nm copper process. The reconstructions employ x-ray computed tomography, measured …

Arrays of low-temperature microcalorimeters provide a promising technology for X-ray
astrophysics: the imaging spectrometer. A camera with at least several thousand pixels …

X-ray nanotomography is a powerful tool for the characterization of nanoscale materials and
structures, but it is difficult to implement due to the competing requirements of X-ray flux and …

Arrays of low-temperature microcalorimeters provide a promising technology for X-ray
astrophysics: the imaging spectrometer. A camera with at least several thousand pixels …

Accurate characterization of subsurface features in integrated circuits (ICs) is essential for
defect detection, quality assurance, and supply chain security. The interiors of ICs are …

As was discussed in Sect. 1.3, many (if not most) of the commercial efforts in quantum
computing (and the other areas) lie with superconductivity and the use of Josephson …

We present a method of creating high-density superconducting flexible wiring on flexible thin
silicon substrates. The flexible wiring, called SOI flex, is created by depositing …
