To achieve a high level of discrimination between nuclear recoils and electron recoils for dark matter research, we realized and studied ionization-heat detectors working at very low temperature (10-20mK). To understand the mechanisms underlying the ionization measurement at this temperature range, we made systematic studies of detectors performances (time stability, energy resolution, etc.) in X- and γ-rays detection for Ge and Si detectors. Results are presented and discussed. We found that the time stability is governed by the progressive space charge build-up due to impurities ionization by far-infrared radiation. Moreover if the energy resolution of HPGe-pin detectors is limited by the noise, it appears to be intrinsically limited by carrier trapping on neutral impurities in Si detectors.
