© Proceedings of the 2011 Meeting of the Division of Particles and Fields of the American Physical Society, DPF 2011. All rights reserved. A brief review of the history and neutrino physics of double beta decay is given. A description of the Majorana Demonstrator research and development program including background reduction techniques is presented in some detail. The application of point contact (PC) detectors to the experiment is discussed, including the effectiveness of pulse shape analysis. The predicted sensitivity of a PC detector array enriched to 86% in 76Ge is given.
