    Toward a Detector/Readout Architecture for the Background-Limited Far-IR/Submm Spectrograph (BLISS)

    We have built and tested 32-element linear arrays of absorber-coupled transition-edge sensors (TESs) read out with a time-division SQUID multiplexer. This detector/readout architecture is designed for the back...

    Effect of non-classical current paths in networks of 1-dimensional wires

    At low temperatures, the quantum corrections to the resistance due to weak localization and electron-electron interaction are affected by the shape and topology of samples. We observed these effects in the res...
