Electron-phonon relaxation in hot-electron detectors below 1 K

Recently proposed submillimeter hot-electron direct detecors based on normal metals and superconductors rely on the thermal coupling between electrons and phonons. The sensitivity of the detectors can be greatly enhanced if the coupling is made very weak at subkelvin temperatures.

Novel multiplexing technique for detector and mixer arrays

Future space submillimeter telescopes will require large-format imaging detector arrays to perform state-of-the-art astronomical observations. A crucial issue related to a focal plane array is a readout scheme which is combatible with large numbers of cryogenic detectors elements.

Submicron-Long HTS Hot-Electron Mixers

We have measured the device length and temperature dependence of the intermediate frequency (IF) bandwidth and noise of hot-electron bolometert (HEB) mixers made from a high-T***subc*** superconductor.
