Photon-Noise Limited Direct Detector Based on Disorder-Controlled Electron HeatingWe present a new concept for a hot-electron direct detector (HEDD) capable of counting single millimeter-wave photons. The detector is based on a transition edge sensor (1-meu size bridge) made form a disordered superconducting film.
