We report new experimental studies to understand the physics of phonon sensors which utilize quasiparticle diffusion in thin aluminum films into tungsten transition-edge-sensors (TESs) operated at 35 mK. We show that basic TES physics and a simple physical model of the overlap region between the W and Al films in our devices enables us to accurately reproduce the experimentally observed pulse shapes from x-rays absorbed in the Al films. We further estimate quasiparticle loss in Al films using a simple diffusion equation approach.

We report initial measurements on our firstMoAu Transition Edge Sensors (TESs). The TESs formed from a bilayer of 40 nm of Mo and 106 nm of Au showed transition temperatures of about 320 mK, higher than identical TESs with a MoCu bilayer which is con
sistent with a reduced electron transmission coefficient between the bilayer films. We report measurements of thermal conductance in the 200 nm thick silicon nitride SiNx support structures at this temperature, TES dynamic behaviour and current noise measurements.
We show the proof-of-principle detection of light at 1550 nm coupled evanescently from a titanium in-diffused lithium niobate waveguide to a superconducting transition edge sensor. The coupling efficiency strongly depends on the polarization, the ove
rlap between the evanescent field, and the detector structure. We experimentally demonstrate polarization sensitivity of this coupling as well as photon-number resolution of the integrated detector. The combination of transition edge sensors and lithium niobate waveguides can open the field for a variety of new quantum optics experiments.
In this paper we present a new measurement setup, where a transitionedge sensor detector array is used to detect X-rays in particle induced X-ray emission measurements with a 2 MeV proton beam. Transition-edge sensors offer orders of magnitude improv
ement in energy resolution compared to conventional silicon or germanium detectors, making it possible to recognize spectral lines in materials analysis that have previously been impossible to resolve, and to get chemical information from the elements. Our sensors are cooled to the operation temperature (65 mK) with a cryogen-free adiabatic demagnetization refrigerator, which houses a specially designed X-ray snout that has a vacuum tight window to couple in the radiation. For the best pixel, the measured instrumental energy resolution was 3.06 eV full width at half maximum at 5.9 keV.We discuss the current status of the project, benefits of transition-edge sensors when used in particle induced X-ray emission spectroscopy, and the results from the first measurements.
To cope with the High Luminosity LHC harsh conditions, the ATLAS inner tracker has to be upgraded to meet requirements in terms of radiation hardness, pile up and geometrical acceptance. The active edge technology allows to reduce the insensitive are
a at the border of the sensor thanks to an ion etched trench which avoids the crystal damage produced by the standard mechanical dicing process. Thin planar n-on-p pixel sensors with active edge have been designed and produced by LPNHE and FBK foundry. Two detector module prototypes, consisting of pixel sensors connected to FE-I4B readout chips, have been tested with beams at CERN and DESY. In this paper the performance of these modules are reported. In particular the lateral extension of the detection volume, beyond the pixel region, is investigated and the results show high hit-efficiency also at the detector edge, even in presence of guard rings.
A method is presented which allows to obtain the position-dependent electric field and charge density by fits to velocity profiles from edge-TCT data from silicon strip-detectors. The validity and the limitations of the method are investigated by sim
ulations of non-irradiated $n^+p$ pad sensors and by the analysis of edge-TCT data from non-irradiated $n^+p$ strip-detectors. The method is then used to determine the position dependent electric field and charge density in $n^+p$ strip detectors irradiated by reactor neutrons to fluences between 1 and $10 times 10^{15}$ cm$^{-2}$ for forward-bias voltages between 25 V and up to 550 V and for reverse-bias voltages between 50 V and 800 V. In all cases the velocity profiles are well described. The electric fields and charge densities determined provide quantitative insights into the effects of radiation damage for silicon sensors by reactor neutrons.
