  • Abstract
    We report on a study of several different electrode technologies to avoid the “dead-layer” problem in ionization and phonon-based dark matter detectors. We have found the most success with an amorphous blocking-layer electrode structure, and have demonstrated background electron rejection of ≈95% above 20 keV.
