Superconducting tunneling-junction detectors of X-ray radiation. Issues concerning the energy resolution
- Russian Academy of Sciences, Institute of Radio Engineering and Electronics (Russian Federation)
The effect of the recombination-and edge-related losses of nonequilibrium quasiparticles on the energy resolution of superconducting tunneling detectors is studied. The dependence of the signal on the energy of X-ray photons is measured and the shape of instrument-related lines is studied for the Ti/Nb/Al/AlO{sub x}/Al/Nb/NbN detectors with the Ti/Nb passive electrode. Experimental data are analyzed using the diffusion-based model of tunneling detectors.
