Description

We are developing high resolution Si-implanted thermistors for a calorimetric neutrino mass experiment. The production process is being tuned to reach high performance and reproducibility. We discuss the properties of devices prepared with different process parameters and different geometries. We also present the results obtained using these thermistors for detecting low energy X-rays.
