Enhanced light signal for the suppression of pile-up events in Mo-based bolometers for the 0$$\nu \beta \beta $$ decay search.

Abstract: Random coincidences of events could be one of the main sources of background in the search for neutrino-less double-beta decay of $$^{100}$$ 100 Mo with macro-bolometers, due to their modest time resolution. Scintillating bolometers as those based on Li$$_2$$ 2 MoO$$_4$$ … Show more

“…In the case of the light detector (LD-LMO) coupled to the Li 2 MoO 4 bolometer, we enhanced its performance by applying a 60 V bias on the Al electrode; it allowed us to get a high sensitivity of about 10-30 μV/keV and a baseline noise of only 16-18 eV FWHM (depending on the working point). These results additionally demonstrate how powerful and viable is the Neganov-Trofimov-Luke signal amplification for the improvement of the signal-to-noise ratio of light detectors, which is of special interest for pile-up background rejection [57,68].…”

“…The selection efficiency (including the trigger efficiency) has been investigated using a pulse-injection method as described e.g. in [57]; we found the efficiency of 97% in the region of interest for 𝛼 particles. The energy spectrum of the selected 𝛼 events is shown in figure 7.…”

“…Fast time response is essential for LMO scintillating bolometers as a viable tool for the rejection of pile-up events, i.e. a source of a notable background in 100 Mo-enriched thermal detectors for 0𝜈𝛽𝛽 decay search [89][90][91][92][93]. In order to characterize a time response of each triggered signal, we computed the following two parameters: 1) rise time defined as the time required by the signal to increase from 10% to 90% of its height; 2) decay time, the time required to decrease from 90% to 30% of its height.…”
