Overview

Randomized trial shows improved phonon collection efficiency in kinetic inductance detectors, indicating enhanced detection capabilities for dark matter searches.

Key Points

  • This research aims to improve the responsivity of kinetic inductance detectors by integrating dedicated phonon collectors.
  • Developed a KID design that utilizes phonon collectors separately from the sensor.
  • Constructed a meander of 77 nm trilayer aluminum-titanium-aluminum wire for the KID and a 100 nm aluminum layer for the collectors.
  • Compared the performance with standard KID designs regarding phonon collection efficiency.
  • Achieved an increased phonon collection efficiency by a factor of around 7 compared to standard designs.
