We have studied the physics of transition-edge sensor (TES) devices with an insulating AlOx layer on top of the device to allow implementation of more complex detector geometries. By comparing devices with and without the insulating film,…
We present results on phonon quasidiffusion and Transition Edge Sensor (TES) studies in a large, 3 inch diameter, 1 inch thick [100] high purity germanium crystal, cooled to 50 mK in the vacuum of a dilution refrigerator, and exposed with…
Absorption spectroscopy is traditionally used to determine the average gas temperature and species concentration along the laser line-of-sight by measuring the magnitude of two or more absorption transitions with different temperature…
Optical frequency stabilization is a critical component for precision scientific systems including quantum sensing, precision metrology, and atomic timekeeping. Ultra-high quality factor photonic integrated optical resonators are a prime…
We present the design and characterisation of a low-noise, resonant input transimpedance amplified photodetector. The device operates at a resonance frequency of $90 \,\textrm{MHz}$ and exhibits an input referred current noise of…
Mid-infrared spectrum is a critical tool for chemical analysis, industrial inspection, environment, and other fields due to its rich chemical bond information. However, the complicated growth or fabrication procedures of existing…
Arrays of hundreds or thousands of low temperature detectors have been deployed for many experiments, both bolometers for long wavelength applications and calorimeters for shorter wavelength applications. One challenge that is common to…
This paper presents results that take a critical step toward proving 10 ps timing resolution's feasibility for particle identification in the TOPSiDE detector concept for the Electron-Ion Collider. Measurements of LGADs with a thickness of…
The energy range from a few hundred keV to a few MeV includes important probes such as nuclear gamma-rays and the 511 keV annihilation line. However, compared to X-rays and GeV/TeV gamma-rays, this range suffers from lower sensitivity by…
Photonic addressing of superconducting circuits has been proposed to overcome wiring complexity and heat load challenges, but superconducting-photonic links suffer from an efficiency-noise trade-off that limits scalability. This trade-off…
Kinetic inductance detectors (KIDs) show promise as a competitive technology for astronomical observations over a wide range of wavelengths. We are interested in comparing the fundamental limitations to the sensitivity of KIDs with that of…
Transition-edge sensors (TES) as microcalorimeters for high-energy-resolution X-ray spectroscopy are often fabricated with an absorber made of materials with high Z (for X-ray stopping power) and low heat capacity (for high resolving…
This paper presents a fully-integrated CMOS temperature sensor for densely-distributed thermal monitoring in systems on chip supporting dynamic voltage and frequency scaling. The sensor front-end exploits a sub-threshold PMOS-based circuit…

To optimize electron energy toward in-situ imaging large bio-samples up to 10-um thickness with nanoscale resolution, we implemented an analytical model based on elastic and inelastic characteristic angles [1]. This model can be used to…
Heating in nanoscale systems driven out of equilibrium is of fundamental importance, has ramifications for technological applications, and is a challenge to characterize experimentally. Prior experiments using nanoscale junctions have…
The Simons Observatory aims to field 70,000 Transition-Edge Sensor (TES) bolometers to measure the Cosmic Microwave Background. With so many detectors, rapid but accurate validation of their properties prior to their integration into…
We have built an electron-phonon coupling model to describe the behavior of the NbxSi1-x transition edge sensor (TES) bolometers, fabricated by electron-beam coevaporation and photolithography techniques on a 2-inch silicon wafer. The…
Aberration-corrected optics have made electron microscopy at atomic-resolution a widespread and often essential tool for nanocharacterization. Image resolution is dominated by beam energy and the numerical aperture of the lens ({\alpha}),…
Atomically resolved electron energy-loss spectroscopy experiments are commonplace in modern aberrationcorrected transmission electron microscopes. Energy resolution has also been increasing steadily with the continuous improvement of…
