Description

The Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (SuperCDMS) directly searches for dark matter as Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). Recently, the development of gram-scale high-voltage detectors has allowed for baseline resolutions on the magnitude of single electron-hole pairs, extending sensitivities to lower masses. We give an overview of such HveV (high voltage electron-volt) performance, with an emphasis on noise characterization.
