| Popis: |
Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KIDs) offer excellent sensitivity in the THz region combined with ease of operation. The SPACEKIDS project is working on developments needed to enable this technology for space. It includes development of antenna-coupled and lumped-element KIDS, and of the necessary readout electronics. KID arrays have been developed for both low-background (astrophysical) and high-background (Earth-observing) applications. Two laboratory demonstrator systems are now being used to evaluate kilo-pixel array characteristics and performance in an environment representative of both astronomy (low background) and Earth observing (high-background) applications. |
