The morphological, transport and terahertz optical properties of DC magnetronsputtered granular molybdenum thin-films with nano-grains embedded in anamorphous matrix have been studied in the normal and superconducting states.The superconducting transition temperatures of these films are much higher thanthat of bulk molybdenum. The optical properties of these thin-films have beenstudied using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. Their properties have beencompared with the existing materials used for the development of radiationdetectors. The resistivity of the films lies in >100 micro-Ohm-cm range whichis ideal for making highly sensitive radiation detectors. The Hall measurementsindicate the presence of holes as the dominant carriers with very small meanfree path and mobility. In the normal state, the films are disordered bad metalbut they have large superfluid density and stiffness in their superconductingstate. The normal state and superconducting properties of the films are verypromising for their use in cryogenic radiation detectors for microwave,terahertz, and far IR frequency ranges.
