The advanced molybdenum-based rare process experiment (AMoRE) aims to search for neutrinoless double beta decay ( 0 ν β β ) of 100 Mo with ∼ 100 kg of 100 Mo-enriched molybdenum embedded in cryogenic detectors with a dual heat and light readout. At the current, pilot stage of the AMoRE project we employ six calcium molybdate crystals with a total mass of 1.9 kg, produced from 48 Ca-depleted calcium and 100 Mo-enriched molybdenum ( 48 depl Ca 100 MoO 4 ). The simultaneous detection of heat (phonon) and scintillation (photon) signals is realized with high resolution metallic magnetic calorimeter sensors that operate at milli-Kelvin temperatures. This stage of the project is carried out in the Yangyang underground laboratory at a depth of 700 m. We report first results from the AMoRE-Pilot 0 ν β β search with a 111 kg day live exposure of 48 depl Ca 100 MoO 4 crystals. No evidence for 0 ν β β decay of 100 Mo is found, and a upper limit is set for the half-life of 0 ν β β of 100 Mo of T 1 / 2 0 ν > 9.5 × 10 22 years at 90% C.L. This limit corresponds to an effective Majorana neutrino mass limit in the range ⟨ m β β ⟩ ≤ ( 1.2 - 2.1 ) eV .
