For continuing and significant contributions in the field of superconductor electronic applications, in particular,
-
for proposing and demonstrating the concept of voltage biased transition edge sensors (TES) which yielded extremely stable operation for these devices,
-
for demonstrating and implementing various multiplexing approaches for TES sensors including SQUID-based times division multiplexing (TDM), code division multiplexing (CDM) and microwave frequency division multiplexing (μFDM) as the means to realize arrays with higher multiplexing factors and/or higher bandwidth, and,
-
for overseeing and implementing the construction of many large TES sensor arrays that have been deployed in various applications, such soft x-ray analysis for material analysis, alpha particle detection for nuclear treaty verification and for to understanding details of the formation of the universe.
