Characterization of a Wide-Band Single-Photon Detector Based on Transition-Edge Sensor

A superconducting transition-edge sensor (TES) as a microcalorimeter detects incoming photons by measuring heat converted from photon energy. With high resolving power and low noise levels, a TES is sensitive to single photons and able to count photons within a wide spectral band from X-ray to near-...
