Astronomical Spectroscopy with Skipper CCDs: First Results from a Skipper CCD Focal Plane Prototype at SIFS
Edgar Marrufo Villalpando, Alex Drlica-Wagner, Brandon Roach +22
We present the first on-sky results from an ultra-low-readout-noise Skipper CCD focal plane prototype for the SOAR Integral Field Spectrograph (SIFS). The Skipper CCD focal plane c…
Smart readout of nondestructive image sensors with single-photon sensitivity
Fernando Chierchie, Guillermo Fernandez Moroni, Leandro Stefanazzi +5
Image sensors with nondestructive charge readout provide single-photon or single-electron sensitivity, but at the cost of long readout times. We present a smart readout technique t…
Low Threshold Acquisition controller for Skipper CCDs
Gustavo Cancelo, Claudio Chavez, Fernando Chierchie +10
The development of the Skipper Charge Coupled Devices (Skipper-CCDs) has been a major technological breakthrough for sensing very weak ionizing particles. The sensor allows to reac…
Achieving sub-electron readout noise in Skipper CCDs
Guillermo Fernandez Moroni, Juan Estrada, Eduardo E. Paolini +3
The readout noise for Charge-Coupled Devices (CCDs) has been the main limitation when using these detectors for measuring small amplitude signals. A readout system for a new scient…
