Description
This experiment uses as detectors scintillating bolometers. They are made of scintillating crystals of ZnMoO4 and Li2MoO4 (including enriched 100Mo) produced in NIIC (Novosibirsk), NTD Ge thermistors previously characterized in their resistivity- temperature and voltage-current behavior, NTD Ge and light detectors working in the range 10-20 mK.
Some R&D tests are ongoing at the Underground Laboratory of Modane. In this poster, I will present first results coming from a big enriched Li2MoO4 crystal and a detector decoupling system obtained in the EDELWEISS set-up with the aim to get better noise conditions. This configuration is a possible prototype for a suspension system for the LUCINEU project.
Looking at these results, it is clear that Li2MoO4 crystals are very promising candidates for double beta decay researches.
