Abstract
Transition Edge Sensors (TESs) are characterized by the intrinsic figures of merit to resolve both the energy and the statistical distribution of the incident photons. These properties lead TES devices to become the best single photon detectors for quantum technology experiments. For a TES based on titanium and gold, has been reached, at telecommunication wavelength, an unprecedented intrinsic energy resolution (0.113 eV). The uncertainty analysis of both energy resolution and photon state assignment has been discussed. The thermal properties of the superconductive device have been studied by fitting the bias curves to evaluate the theoretical limit of the energy resolution.
