摘要
We are developing gamma-ray detectors with a bulk absorber and a superconducting transition-edge sensor. The absorber is high-purity Sn and the transition-edge sensor is a Mo/Cu multilayer thin film. We have characterized the detector. and will discuss X- and gamma-ray results. Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
