I have to do broadband detection -can't go with tuned circuits. John do you of cold JFETs which won't have freeze-out at 4 kelvin?
This can be assured by detecting for along time, approx. 1 sec - the digitizer we have goes at 1 MHz sampling rate - this makes 1 million data points to store, not bad at all.
Also, i am looking use the transimpedance amplifier with a resistor in feedback, described by Bob Pease in "
