摘要
We present a new proposal for a Ge-semiconductor dark matter detector. As will be shown the use of anti-coincidence between two Ge-detectors will drastically reduce the photon background which mainly limits the direct detection of hypothetical dark matter particles (WIMPs). We expect to improve WIMP cross section limits to a level comparable to planned cryogenic experiments.
