Surface charging effects are investigated in a germanium ionization-heat detector operated at cryogenic temperatures. Under properly defined biasing conditions, carriers of one type only (either electrons or holes) are driven in a controlled manner into the free surfaces of the detector where they b
This work reports on the development of the first phonon detectors based on CaMoO 4 and ZnWO 4 scintillating crystals for the CRESST-II experiment. In particular, a novel technique for the production of the ZnWO 4 phonon detector with a separate thermometer carrier was investigated. The influence of
A computation code is presented, allowing numerical simulation and pulse-shape analysis of the ionization and heat signals in low-temperature massive Ge detectors for Dark Matter research. The effects on charge collection are pointed out, arising from the Coulomb repulsion of free carriers within th
