We demonstrate experimentally an ultra-sensitive thermal detector formed of an electronic absorber coupled to a phonon bath, which reaches the ultimate noise level dictated by the fundamental thermal fluctuations [1]. A scheme of coupling a superconducting qubit to this calorimeter is presented and we conclude positively about sufficient signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in detecting a microwave photon emitted by it [2,3,4]. Recently this scheme was applied to the thermal detection of quantum phase slips in a Josephson junction [5], and currently we are performing experiments on the proposed qubit calorimetry.
