Title: Millimeter Wavelength Bolometers Cooled by Adiabatic Demagnetization Refrigeration
Abstract: We have constructed composite bolometers operating at temperatures near 0.1 K to detect one millimeter continuum radiation. Our most sensitive detector has a measured electrical noise equivalent power (NEP) of 7 × 10 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">−17</sup> W Hz <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">−1/2</sup> , which is about three times more sensitive than previously reported. We present our experimental results, and design considerations for 0.1 K bolometers.
