TES/QET based Detector modeling and optimization
Project description
Package for Optimizing QET based Phonon sensitive Detectors.
The code structure follows that of a real detector.
A Detector object is composed of an Absorber object and a QET object. A QET is composed of at TES object. Absorber, QET, and TES objects have material properties that are passed from darkopt.materials.
See Examples/example.ipynb for usage of the package
Installation
To install the most recent (stable) development version of DarkOpt, clone this repo, then from the top-level directory of the repo, type the following line into your command line
pip install .
You may need to add the --user flag if using a shared Python installation.
This package requires python 3.6 or greater. A current version of Anaconda3 should be sufficient, however a conda environment file as well as a list of dependencies is provided (condaenv.yml and requirements.txt)
TODO
- Add Tc dependent plots
Work needed:
- Currently assumes bare crystal surface is elastic process, no down conversion
- Think it is < 1%
- Number of bounces before phonons go subgap ?
- Need Down Conversion but now bellow 1 meV
- Lowering W Tc and Fin Tc (are the set values correct?)
This is based on erlier work from Matt Pyle's matlab optimization code.
