Resistance in transition-edge sensors: A comparison of the resistively shunted junction and two-fluid models

“…The I c for long SS S weak links can also be much higher than for the same-sized SN S weak link. 26 This implies that the physics describing the transition of the TES film from the superconducting state to the normal state is critical to understanding the temperature-and current-dependent TES resistance. It also suggests that only in very small devices, where the weak-link behavior is maintained in the finite resistance regime, will the TES resistance be dominated by its weak-link behavior.…”
