Abstract

The low-mass frontier of Dark Matter, the measurement of the neutrino mass, the search for new light bosons in laboratory experiments, all require detectors sensitive to excitations of meV or smaller. Faint and rare signals, such as those produced by vacuum photoemission or by an Axion in a magnetic field, could be efficiently detected only by a new class of sensors. The Italian institute for nuclear physics (INFN) has financed the three-year SIMP project (2019-2021) in order to strengthen its skills and technologies in this field with the ultimate aim of developing a single microwave photon detector. This goal will be pursued by improving the sensitivity and the dark count rate of two types of photodetectors: Current Biased Josephson Junction and Transition Edge Sensor
