Abstract:
Transition-Edge Sensors (TESs) as a type of low-temperature superconducting detectors have shown excellent energy resolution and high measurement efficiency over traditional semiconductor detectors and crystal spectrometers, respectively. With delicate design, the signal it can measure with high sensitivity covers a broad range-from millimeter waves in the long-wavelength regime to X-ray and gamma-rays in the very short-wavelength regime. This talk will introduce four typical low-temperature superconducting detectors and describe in detail the development and scientific applications of TESs.
Biography:
Daikang Yan graduated from Northwestern University with a PhD degree in year 2019, and then worked in the Quantum Sensors Group at the National Institute of Standards and Technology till 2022. Currently she works at the Institute of High-Energy Physics as an associate professor. She has been working on the development of superconducting transition-edge sensors since PhD, and has designed high-resolution TES detectors for the Advanced Photon Source and Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex. Her current projects include developing long-wavelength TESs for cosmic background microwave telescopes and developing X-ray TESs for material characterization at the High Energy Photon Source in Beijing.
