摘要：

We report on the use of a kinetic-inductance traveling-wave parametric amplifier (KITWPA) as the first amplifier in the readout chain of a microwave superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) multiplexer (lmux). This lmux is designed to multiplex signals from arrays of low temperature detectors, such as superconducting transition-edge sensor microcalorimeters. When modulated with a periodic flux-ramp to linearize the SQUID response, the flux noise improves, on average, from 1.6 mu phi(0) /root Hz with the KITWPA off to 0.77 mu phi(0) /root Hzp with the KITWPA on. When statically biasing the lmux to the maximally flux-sensitive point, the flux noise drops from 0.45 mu phi(0) /root Hz to 0.2 mu phi(0) /root Hz. We validate this new readout scheme by coupling a transition-edge sensor microcalorimeter to the lmux and detecting background radiation. The combination of lmux and KITWPA provides a variety of new capabilities including improved detector sensitivity and more efficient bandwidth utilization.
