Abstract

X-ray microcalorimeter arrays are well suited to address key problems in high-energy astrophysics; this microcalorimeter uses thermometers based on technology IDT (Implanted Diffused Thermometer) implemented in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers. This work presents our results on the test (measurements) of the thermometer prototype.
