Abstract

Bolometric detectors are used in particle physics experiments to search for rare processes, like neutrinoless double-beta decay and dark-matter interactions. Operating in low-temperature conditions they are able to detect particles energies from few keV up to several MeV, measuring the temperature rise produced by the energy released. We studied the bolometers used in the CUORE experiment. The response function of these detectors is not linear in the energy range of interest: the measurement of the energy is complicated and the shape of the signal depends on the energy itself. The response function changes when the operating temperature changes. The non-linearity is found to be dominated by the thermistor and the biasing circuit used to operate these detectors. An algorithm to obtain a linear response is proposed, introducing new techniques for the data analysis.
