  3. APEX-SZ • 12 m antenna, ALMA prototype • 5100 m Atacama Plateau, Chile • 320 element TES bolometer array • Frequency domain SQUID • multiplexer readout • Pulse-Tube Cooler (PTC) • Use Sunyaev-Zel’dovich effect to • study galaxy clusters • Operating and taking data

  4. TES Array • Horn-coupled • 55 Pixels Per Wedge • 6 Wedges Per Array

  5. TES Array • Horn-coupled • 55 Pixels Per Wedge • 6 Wedges Per Array

  6. R ~ 1.2  normal T ~ 450 mK C t ~ 9 ms optical TES Bolometer • Au spiderweb absorber R ~ 200  / sq • Al/Ti Bilayer TES • Au Thermal Link G ~ 200 pW / K • low-stress Si N substrate, released with XeF etch 3 4 2

  7. Bolometer Cavity Design Band-defining filters Waveguide Feed Horn Spiderweb Absorber TES Silicon Wafer Airgap Invar Backshort

  8. Bolometer Cavity Simulation 150 GHz Simulation, 200 Ohm/sq Abs, λ/4 Backshort Absorbed Power Reflected Power Radiated Power • Optimize bolometer cavity • HFSS - Ansoft Corporation - 3D finite-element electromagnetic sims

  9. Frequency Domain Multiplexer AC bias bolometers from 200 kHz – 1 MHz

  10. Frequency Domain Multiplexer AC bias bolometers from 200 kHz – 1 MHz • Zero power dissipation • at sub-Kelvin stage • Strong rejection of time- • varying B-fields • Simple shielding • requirements • Reduced vibration • sensitivity

  11. Frequency Domain Multiplexer SQUID array made by NIST

  12. Bolometer Stability t sensor 5.8 Conservative Stability Criterion: > [ Irwin, JAP,1998 ] t bias For current fMUX (AC bias) at 50% bolometer superconducting transition: 2L t MUX = ~ 50 μs bias R Too fast for stable operation Early bolometers: C t = ~ 100 μs 0 G With conservative stability criterion we can tolerate: t t = / (Loopgain + 1) > 300 μs 0 sensor

  13. Increasing Heat Capacity Current Bolometers: • Add 3 μm thick gold ring • Slow down detectors t ~ 30 ms 0 • Allows operation deep into transition • Critical for heat capacity to be • strongly coupled to TES
