Electron-phonon relaxation in hot-electron detectors below 1 K
Recently proposed submillimeter hot-electron direct detecors based on normal metals and superconductors rely on the thermal coupling between electrons and phonons. The sensitivity of the detectors can be greatly enhanced if the coupling is made very weak at subkelvin temperatures.

Photon-Noise Limited Direct Detector Based on Disorder-Controlled Electron Heating
We present a new concept for a hot-electron direct detector (HEDD) capable of counting single millimeter-wave photons. The detector is based on a transition edge sensor (1-meu size bridge) made form a disordered superconducting film.
