Abstract
We design and fabricate a 350GHz 8×8 Al Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector (MKIDs) array for the demonstration of its characteristics, mainly focus on the quasiparticle lifetime of the resonators. The quasiparticle lifetime data is collected by measuring a resonator’s phase response to a LED pulse at resonant frequency in a dilution refrigerator cooled to mK stage. We also measure and discuss the influence of various parameters on the change of quasiparticle lifetime, including different LED voltage supply, bath temperature of the MKIDs, and superconducting film thickness.
