Germanium detectors with sub-keV sensitivities [1] offer a unique opportunity
to search for light WIMP Dark Matter and axion-like particles. We will highlight our results and status of CDEX dark matter experiment [2] at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory (CJPL) [3] in China. The detector R&D programs which allow us to experimentally probe this new energy window will be discussed,...

DEAP-3600 is a single phase dark matter detector located at SNOLAB, in Sudbury, Ontario. The detector consists of 3.3 tonnes of liquid argon (LAr), viewed by an array of 255 PMTs through 50 cm of acrylic. DEAP-3600 began operations in May 2016, and it has been running stably since November 2016. Analysis of the data taken so far demonstrates the power of pulse shape discrimination to reject...
