A kilo-pixel imaging system for future space based far-infrared observatories using microwave kinetic inductance detectors
Aims. Future astrophysics and cosmic microwave background space missions operating in the far-infrared to millimetre part of the spectrum will require very large arrays of ultra-sensitive detectors in combination with high multiplexing factors and efficient lownoise and low-power readout systems. We have developed a demonstrator system suitable for such applications. Methods. The system combine...
متن کاملMultiplexable Kinetic Inductance Detectors
We are starting to investigate a novel multiplexable readout method that can be applied to a large class of superconducting pair-breaking detectors. This readout method is completely different from those currently used with STJ and TES detectors, and in principle could deliver large pixel counts, high sensitivity, and Fano-limited spectral resolution. The readout is based on the fact that the k...
متن کاملA readout for large arrays of microwave kinetic inductance detectors.
Microwave kinetic inductance detectors (MKIDs) are superconducting detectors capable of counting single photons and measuring their energy in the UV, optical, and near-IR. MKIDs feature intrinsic frequency domain multiplexing (FDM) at microwave frequencies, allowing the construction and readout of large arrays. Due to the microwave FDM, MKIDs do not require the complex cryogenic multiplexing el...
متن کاملA Millimeter and Submillimeter Kinetic Inductance Detector Camera
We present results from a demonstration camera using Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors (MKIDs) (Day et al. in Nature 425, 817–821, 2003) at the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory. The focal plane consists of 16 two-color (240 and 350 GHz) pixels. Each pixel is a phased-array of slot dipole antenna whose output power is coupled to MKIDs via in-line color-defining bandpass filters. A prototyp...

Wepresent a compact current sensor based on a superconductingmicrowave lumped-element resonator with a nanowire kinetic inductor, operating at 4.2 K. The sensor is suitable formultiplexed readout inGHz range for large-format arrays of cryogenic detectors. The device consists of a lumpedelement resonant circuit, fabricated from a single 4 nm-thick superconducting layer of niobium nitride. Thus, ...
