Development of superconducting contacts for the CRESST II 66-channel superconducting quantum interference device readout system.

Rev Sci Instrum 78:7 (2007) 073301

Authors:

B Majorovits, S Henry, H Kraus

Abstract:

The CRESST experiment is designed to search for weakly interacting massive particle dark matter with cryogenic detectors. CRESST II will use up to 33 CaWO(4) crystals with a total mass of approximately 10 kg. These many detectors require a readout system based on 66-channel superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs). In this article we report on the development of a modular superconducting connector for the 66-channel SQUID readout circuit. We show that the technique developed reliably produces superconducting contacts.

Excited states of molybdenum oxyanion in scheelite and wolframite structures

RADIAT MEAS 42:4-5 (2007) 767-770

Authors:

A Kotlov, L Jonsson, H Kraus, V Mikhailik, V Nagirnyi, G Svensson, BI Zadneprovski

Abstract:

Scheelite CdMoO4 and wolframite eCdWO(4):MO (0.04-0.4wt%) single crystals were studied using the time-resolved spectroscopy under UV excitation over a temperature range of 1.85-300K. The threshold energies for the creation of free charge carriers were measured using the method of photostimulated luminescence. The decay kinetics of the main emission in CdMoO4 and the molybdenum-related emission in CdWO4:MO was studied and the parameters of the triplet excited states of molybdenum-related oxyanions were calculated.
