A noiseless, photon-counting detector, which resolves the energy of each photon, could
radically change astronomy, biophysics, and quantum optics. Superconducting detectors …

We propose to achieve the proof-of-principle of the PTOLEMY project to directly detect the
Cosmic Neutrino Background (CNB). Each of the technological challenges described in [1 …

Graphene on top of semiconductor builds an emerging highly sensitive photodetector with
internal gain. Owing to the graphene/semiconductor interface junction, one kind of photo …

With great interest from the quantum computing community, an immense amount of R&D
effort has been invested into improving superconducting qubits. The technologies …

We demonstrate photon counting at 1550 nm wavelength using microwave kinetic
inductance detectors (MKIDs) made from TiN/Ti/TiN trilayer films with superconducting …

In this letter, we present the performance of a 100 μm× 400 μm× 40 nm W Transition-Edge
Sensor with a critical temperature of 40 mK. This device has a noise equivalent power of …

The Italian institute for nuclear physics (INFN) has financed the SIMP project (2019–2021) in
order to strengthen its skills and technologies in the field of meV detectors with the ultimate …

Uniform large transition-edge sensor (TES) arrays are fundamental for the next generation of
x-ray space observatories. These arrays are required to achieve an energy resolution ΔE< 3 …

The critical temperature (T c) of superconducting Ti/Au bilayer films is crucial for the
performance of transition-edge sensors. We use a co-sputtering technique to insert a Ti-Au …

The next generation of Far-infrared and X-ray space observatories will require detector
arrays with thousands of transition edge sensor (TES) pixel. It is extremely important to have …
