abstract
An array of twelve 0.28 kg lithium molybdate (LMO) low-temperature bolometers equipped with 16 bolometric Ge light detectors, aiming at optimization of detector structure for CROSS and CUPID double-beta decay experiments, was constructed and tested in a low-background pulse-tube-based cryostat at the Canfranc underground laboratory in Spain. Performance of the scintillating bolometers was studied depending on the size of phonon NTD-Ge sensors glued to both LMO and Ge absorbers, shape of the Ge light detectors (circular vs. square, from two suppliers), in different light collection conditions (with and without reflector, with aluminum coated LMO crystal surface). The scintillating bolometer array was operated over 8 months in the low-background conditions that allowed to probe a very low, $\mu$Bq/kg, level of the LMO crystals radioactive contamination by $^{228}$Th and $^{226}$Ra.

Cryogenic light detectors with thermal signal amplification for $0\nu\beta\beta$ search experiments
NTL-amplified germanium light detectors in a 10-crystal cryogenic array achieve a signal-to-noise gain near 9, sub-millisecond rise time, and projected pile-up background close to the CUPID goal.

Muon veto system for the CROSS double-beta decay search experiment
A nine-sector muon veto with single-sector trigger logic is projected to reject 99.7% of muon-induced events in the CROSS 0νββ region of interest, reducing that background to ~2e-3 cnts/keV/kg/yr.
