The SuperCDMS experiment is designed to directly detect weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) that may constitute the dark matter in our Galaxy. During its operation at Soudan Underground Laboratory, germanium detectors were run CDMSlite mode gather data sets with sensitivity specifically for WIMPs masses ${<}$10 GeV/$c^2$. In this mode, a higher detector-bias voltage applied amplify phonon signals produced by drifting charges. This paper presents studies of experimental noise and...

The SuperCDMS experiment in the Soudan Underground Laboratory searches for dark matter with a 9-kg array of cryogenic germanium detectors. Symmetric sensors on opposite sides measure both charge and phonons from each particle interaction, providing excellent discrimination between electron nuclear recoils, surface interior events.

We measured the nuclear-recoil ionization yield in silicon with a cryogenic phonon-sensitive gram-scale detector. Neutrons from monoenergetic beam scatter off of nuclei at angles corresponding to energy depositions 4 keV down 100 eV, lowest probed so far. The results show no sign an production threshold above eV. These call for further investigation theory and comprehensive determination detector response function energies below scale.
