Abstract

We have fabricated and characterized the capacitively-coupled Cold-Electron Bolometer (CEB) in the current-biased mode. The bolometer responsivity and the noise equivalent power (NEP) were measured. The NEP was measured from 35 Hz to 2 kHz. The bolometer NEP of 2x10^–18 W/Hz^1/2 was obtained for frequencies above 1 kHz. The bolometer time constant was also estimated using the experimental device parameters.
