L’attività di ricerca da me svolta durante il dottorato di ricerca è stata legata all’applicazione e sviluppo di rivelatori a scintillazione criogenici, pensati per la ricerca del decadimento doppio beta senza emissione di neutrini (0νββ). Ho analizzato due possibili implementazioni di questa tecnica: rivelatori ad alte prestazioni basati sulla lettura della luce di scintillazione e rivelatori bolometrici a scintillazione con doppia lettura. Il rivelatore per 0νββ basato sulla scintillazione che ho studiato è costituito da cristalli scintillanti, contenenti l’isotopo candidato al 0νββ, accoppi

Abstract:
I start by presenting simulations of the noise performance of Superconductor-Insulator-Superconductor (SIS) direct detectors, combined with op-amp based readout electronics. This involves the combination of non-linear device modelling, with a detailed noise model of both the SIS junction and the readout-electronics. Using this model, I show that an SIS direct detector can be competitive in terms of noise performance with a transition edge sensor, provided the junction is biased well below the gap, and that the gap is tailored to the observing frequency. I then describe a set of experiments aim

Abstract:
This thesis describes the development and testing of two cold-electron bolometers using highly-doped silicon as the absorber. These detectors exhibit both high sensitivity and low time constants. High sensitivity is achieved due to the weak thermal-link between the electrons and the phonons in the silicon absorber at low temperature (< 1 K). Schottky barriers form naturally between the highly-doped silicon absorber and the superconducting contacts. Selective tunnelling of electrons across these Schottky barriers allows the electron temperature in the silicon absorber to be cooled to below the

Noise in electronic circuits can sometimes cause problems. It is especially problematic in for example high sensitive sensors and high end audio and video equipment.

By lowering the noise, sensors can achieve higher accuracy.  This thesis presents an ultra low noise solution of the biasing circuitry to the bolometer used in one of FLIR Systems high end

Cette these presente des recherches et developpements technologiques concernant les systemes de lecture des bolometres utilisant une modulation electrique et un traitement numerique du signal realise avec des processeurs spatialisables (transputers). Ces etudes ont permis de definir, realiser et tester un systeme optimise pour la mission spatiale planck surveyor de l'esa, dediee principalement aux mesures des fluctuations angulaires du corps noir cosmologique. Cette these comprend cinq parties distinctes : 1. Description scientifique et technique de planck surveyor 2. Presentation du bolometre

Abstract:
Nous etudions des bolometres bases sur des jonctions tunnel metal normal - isolant - supraconducteur en vue de leur application a la mesure d'energie d'ions retrodiffuses. La fabrication et l'etude de tels bolometres est montre en detail. On s'attache particulierement a l'influence des parametres physiques sur la mesure de temperature.

We have carried out a pilot study for the SCUBA-2 'All-Sky' Survey, SASSy, a wide and shallow mapping project at 850 μm, designed to find rare objects, both Galactic and extragalactic. Two distinct sets of exploratory observations were undertaken, and used to test the SASSy approach and data reduction pipeline.  The first was a 0.5° x 0.5° map around the nearby galaxy NGC 2559.  The galaxy was easily detected at 156 mJy, but no other convincing sources are present in the map.  Comparison with other galaxies with similar wavelength coverage indicates that NGC 2559 has relatively warm dust.  The

Abstract:
L'étude de la double désintégration bêta sans neutrinos joue un rôle important dans plusieurs questions en physique des particules et cosmologie. Ce processus nucléaire hypothétique viole la conservation du nombre leptonique par deux unités et jusqu'à présent il est le seule moyen pratique pour dévoiler la nature du neutrino : sa détection implique forcement que neutrino et antineutrino sont la même particule. En outre, le taux de décroissance est sensible à la masse efficace de Majorana du neutrino, du coup à l'échelle absolue des valeurs propres de la masse et leur hiérarchie. La marque expé
