Abstract
By using a capacitor in parallel with a semiconducting bolometer, the inductive
part of the bolometer impedance is resonated out. The resultant system is a
bolometer with a resonant response over a band of ≈2 Hz. This can be viewed as
an amplifier with the potential of large gain, with no decrease in
signal-to-noise ratio. The resonant bolometer may be useful for very low
temperature bolometers, where one could boost the bolometer noise over the
amplifier noise.
