(author)We have measured and characterized the thermal crosstalk in two different arrays of transition-edge sensor (TES) X-ray microcalorimeters with frequency-domain multiplexing (FDM) readout. The TES arrays are fabricated at SRON and are a 8 × 8 and a 32 × 32 'kilo-pixel' uniform array. The amount of crosstalk is evaluated as the ratio between the...journal article 2022

Vaccaro, D. (author), Akamatsu, H. (author), Gottardi, L (author), Van Der Kuur, J. (author), Taralli, E. (author), de Wit, M. (author), Bruijn, MP (author), den Hartog, R (author), Gao, J.R. (author)We present a characterization of the sensitivity of TES X-ray micro-calorimeters to environmental conditions under frequency-domain multiplexing (FDM) readout. In the FDM scheme, each TES in a readout chain is in series with a LC band-pass filter and AC biased with an independent carrier at MHz range. Using TES arrays, cold readout circuitry and...journal article 2022

(author), Jackson, B. D. (author)SRON is developing ultra-low noise Transition Edge Sensors (TESs) based on a superconducting Ti/Au bilayer on a suspended SiN island with SiN legs for the SAFARI instrument aboard the SPICA mission. We successfully fabricated TESs with very narrow (0.5-0.7 μm) and thin (0.25 μm) SiN legs on different sizes of SiN islands using deep...conference paper 2016
