Abstract

AMoRE (Advanced Mo based Rare process Experiment) collaboration is going to use calcium molybdate crystals as cryogenic scintillation detector in a search for neutrinoless DBD of ¹⁰⁰Mo isotope. Simultaneous detection of phonons and light will be used to reject internal background. A FWHM resolution of 0.2% in the phonon channel has been achieved with a 0.5 cm³ crystal. Several ⁴⁰Ca¹⁰⁰MoO₄ crystals (≈ 0.5 kg) have been developed from enriched ¹⁰⁰Mo and depleted ⁴⁰Ca materials. The light yield of these crystals has been shown to be comparable with reference CaMoO₄ scintillators for temperatures ranging down to 8 K. The content of dangerous radioisotopes in the crystals is under measurement. The projected sensitivity of the experiment for a 250 kg × years exposure is lim T_1/2 ∼ 3 × 10²⁶ years, which corresponds to the effective Majorana neutrino mass (m_v) ∼ 0.02 - 0.06 eV.
