Our KIDs have a lumped-element architecture with parallel plate capacitors and aluminum inductors. The incoming light is received with a hierarchical phased array of slot dipole antennas, split into 4 frequency bands (between 125 GHz and 365 GHz) with on-chip lumped-element band-pass filters, and routed to different KIDs using microstriplines. Individual pixels detect light for the 3 higher-frequency bands (190–365 GHz), and the signals from four individual pixels are coherently summed to create a larger pixel detecting light for the lowest frequency band (125–175 GHz). The spectral response of the band-pass filters was measured using Fourier transform spectroscopy (FTS), the far-field beam pattern of the phased-array antennas was obtained using an infrared source mounted on a 2-axis translating stage, and the optical efficiency of the KIDs was characterized by observing loads at 294 K and 77 K. We report on the results of these three measurements.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":641,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Low Temperature Physics","volume":"216 Part 3","pages":"104 - 111"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10909-024-03110-4.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141522840","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

CMB experiments including POLARBEAR2/Simons Array, Atacama Cosmology Telescope/Advanced-ACT, SPT-3G, the Simons Observatory, and CMB-S4 have or will use transition edge sensor (TES) bolometer fabricated with Aluminum doped with Manganese (AlMn). AlMn is a popular material choice as the superconducting transition temperature (<span>(T_c)</span>) and normal resistance (<span>(R_n)</span>) of the TES can be tuned with Mn concentration, geometric patterning, film thickness, and thermal annealing. In addition the conductivity is appropriate for both time division multiplexing and frequency division multiplexing that require 10 m<span>(Omega)</span> and 1 <span>(Omega)</span> sensors respectively. In this paper we present work on the ability to tune the <span>(T_c)</span> of a film based on its time and temperature thermal tuning profile combined with room temperature monitoring of film resistivity. Such control allows for the fabrication of a wide range of TES parameters from a single AlMn concentration. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) imaging shows that the AlMn film’s grain boundaries are changed by thermal annealing making the film more conductive and raising its superconducting transition temperatures, and that at high enough temperatures will eventually recover the <span>(T_c)</span> of bulk Al. We find that baking films at <span>(sim)</span>200 <span>(^circtext{C})</span> for tens of minutes yields a <span>(T_c)</span> that is suitable for 100 mK base temperature experiments and we present on the thermal tune profiles of several different thicknesses of AlMn.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":641,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Low Temperature Physics","volume":"216 Part 3","pages":"264 - 272"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141368034","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They could also produce gravitational waves of a frequency observable by future space-based detectors such as the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna. All calculations of the gravitational wave power spectrum rely on a relativistic version of the classical nucleation theory of Cahn-Hilliard and Langer, due to Coleman and Linde. The high purity and precise control of pressure and temperature achievable in the laboratory made the first-order A to B transition of superfluid <span>(^3)</span>He ideal for test of classical nucleation theory. As Leggett and others have noted, the theory fails dramatically. The lifetime of the metastable A phase is measurable, typically of order minutes to hours, far faster than classical nucleation theory predicts. If the nucleation of B phase from the supercooled A phase is due to a new, rapid intrinsic mechanism that would have implications for first-order cosmological phase transitions as well as predictions for gravitational wave production in the early universe. Here we discuss studies of the A-B phase transition dynamics in <span>(^3)</span>He, both experimental and theoretical, and show how the computational technology for cosmological phase transition can be used to simulate the dynamics of the A-B transition, support the experimental investigations of the A-B transition in the QUEST-DMC collaboration with the goal of identifying and quantifying the mechanism(s) responsible for nucleation of stable phases in ultra-pure metastable quantum phases.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":641,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Low Temperature Physics","volume":"215 5-6","pages":"495 - 524"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10909-024-03151-9.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141369811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
