Towards Ultra-Low-NoiseMoAu Transition Edge Sensors

Abstract

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 consistent 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.
