Scope of Ph.D.


Title: Back-End Design for the Read-Out System for Superconducting Sensors

Superconducting sensors are used in a wide set of applications such as high energy physics (like Neutrino Mass determination, ECHo), Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) measurements or superconducting qubits.
This work, embedded in the QUBIC Collaboration and the ECHO project, aims to design and develop a software-defined radio digital backend, of the read-out electronics of cryogenic particle detectors, aiming to process a high number of frequency tones for Frequency-Domain Multiplexing (FDM) approach. It's focused in developing a high performance processing approach, with high scalability and minimizing the FPGA used resources.
