Radiation sensors based on the heating effect of absorbed radiation are typically simple to operate and flexible in terms of input frequency, so they are widely used in gas detection 1 …
Deriving the laws of thermodynamics from a microscopic picture is a central quest of statistical mechanics. This tutorial focuses on the derivation of the first and second law for …
The field of propagating quantum microwaves is a relatively new area of research that is receiving increased attention due to its promising technological applications, both in …
We demonstrate radio-frequency thermometry on a micrometer-sized metallic island below 100 mK. Our device is based on a normal-metal–insulator–superconductor tunnel junction …
We experimentally investigate and utilize electrothermal feedback in a microwave nanobolometer based on a normal-metal (Au x Pd 1-x) nanowire with proximity-induced …
