Finished project: Warm filters
Thermal effects in single photon detection - characterization of optical filters and filter bank Julian Dietz has artificially improved the energy resolution of a superconducting quantum detector by means of narrow-band optical filters and estimated the efficiency losses to be expected. The detector will later verify dark matter (axion-like particles)…
