“…The outcome of such experiments highly depends on the performances of the light detectors. The idea of enhancing the signal-to-noise ratio of cryogenic calorimeters to detect optical photons using the NTLE 4,5,6,7 was initially proposed by Stark et al 8 . Standard calorimetric light detectors measure the phonon signal induced by the interaction of photons in an absorber.…”

Cryogenic rare event searches based on heat and light composite calorimeters have a common need for large area photon detectors with high quantum efficiency, good radiopurity and high sensitivity. By employing the Neganov-Trofimov-Luke effect (NTLE), the phonon signal of particle interactions in a semiconductor absorber operated at cryogenic temperatures can be amplified by drifting the photogenerated electrons and holes in an electric field. We present here the last results of a Neganov-Trofimov-Luke effect light detector with an electric field configuration optimized to improve the charge collection within the absorber.
