稀有气体中的比例电致发光 (EL) 用于暗物质搜索的两相探测器，以记录（在气相中）由液相中的粒子散射引起的电离信号。 “标准”EL 机制被认为是由于真空紫外 (VUV) 中的稀有气体准分子发射。此外，还有两种替代机制，可产生可见光和近红外 (NIR) 范围内的光。第一个是由于散射在中性原子上的电子的轫致辐射（“中性轫致辐射”，NBrS）。第二个是在较高电场下近红外区域中电子雪崩闪烁的原因，是由于激发原子态之间的转变造成的。在这项工作中，我们首次展示了两相氩探测器光学读出的两种替代技术，在可见光和近红外范围内，使用硅光电倍增管矩阵和由于中性轫致辐射或雪崩闪烁而产生的电致发光。测量了这些读出技术的振幅产量和位置分辨率，从而可以评估用于暗物质搜索的两相氩探测器中电子和核反冲的检测阈值。据我们所知，这是 NBrS 效应在检测科学中的首次实际应用。
Proportional electroluminescence (EL) in noble gases is used in two-phase detectors for dark matter searches to record (in the gas phase) the ionization signal induced by particle scattering in the liquid phase. The “standard” EL mechanism is considered to be due to noble gas excimer emission in the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV). In addition, there are two alternative mechanisms, producing light in the visible and near infrared (NIR) ranges. The first is due to bremsstrahlung of electrons scattered on neutral atoms (“neutral bremsstrahlung”, NBrS). The second, responsible for electron avalanche scintillation in the NIR at higher electric fields, is due to transitions between excited atomic states. In this work, we have for the first time demonstrated two alternative techniques of the optical readout of two-phase argon detectors, in the visible and NIR range, using a silicon photomultiplier matrix and electroluminescence due to either neutral bremsstrahlung or avalanche scintillation. The amplitude yield and position resolution were measured for these readout techniques, which allowed to assess the detection threshold for electron and nuclear recoils in two-phase argon detectors for dark matter searches. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first practical application of the NBrS effect in detection science.
