Abstract
We set up a prototype for a new cryogenic particle detector. Due to it s predicted amplification mechanism, such a bolometer may allow the co nstruction of large volume detectors with the high-energy resolution o f small cryogenic devices. These could be used in double beta decay or dark matter search experiments. The development of the different part s of this detector will be described. specially the production of the necessary high-quality superconducting microwave cavities.
