Description
The AMoRE (Advanced Mo-based Rare process Experiment) collaboration will perform a search for neutrinoless double beta decay of Mo-100 using a cryogenic technique with Mo-100 enriched and Ca-48 depleted calcium molybdate (CaMoO4) crystal scintillators at the deep underground laboratory in Korea. CaMoO4 crystals show brightest scintillation light among variety of molybdate crystals at room and cryogenic temperature. Techniques to reduce internal background of CaMoO4 crystals and low radioactivity measurements at room and milli-Kelvin temperatures as well as expected various background levels using GEANT4 simulation will be presented.
