摘要
Using careful measurements of the I-V curve of a YBCO thin film microbridge under light irradiation at 780 nm and temperature T close to 77 K, we show that the critical current versus temperature dependence is a good thermometer for estimating bolometric effects in the film. We introduce a new dynamic voltage bias which directly gives the device current responsitivity and greatly reduces risks of thermal runaway. Detectivity is very low but we predict that noise equivalent temperature of less than 10(-7) K/root Hz would be achievable on a large temperature range (10-80 K), which is an improvement to thermometry at the resistive transition.
