  In this study, we evaluate the suitability of using DC-biased aluminium
resonators as low-frequency kinetic inductance detectors operating in the
frequency range of 50 - 120 GHz. Our analysis routine for supercurrent-biased
resonators is based on the Usadel equations and gives outputs including density
of states, complex conductivities, transmission line properties, and
quasiparticle lifetimes. Results from our analysis confirm previous
experimental observations on resonant frequency tuneability and retention of
high quality factor. Crucially, our analysis suggests that DC-biased resonators
demonstrate significantly suppressed superconducting density of states gap.
Consequently these resonators have lower frequency detection threshold and are
suitable materials for low-frequency kinetic inductance detectors.
