The SuperCDMS experiment has designed a new generation of dark matter detectors which have recently demonstrated sensitivity to events with a single charge, equivalent to a minimum event energy of 1.2 eV, the indirect bandgap energy of Si, with very low dark counts. This level of sensitivity was achieved partially through the use of Luke-Neganov... More »
