LEKID sensitivity for space applications between 80 and 600 GHz
A. Catalano, A. Bideaud, O. Bourrion +8
We report the design, fabrication and testing of Lumped Element Kinetic Inductance Detectors (LEKID) showing performance in line with the requirements of the next generation space…
Atomic Layer Deposition Niobium Nitride Films for High-Q Resonators
Calder Sheagren, Peter Barry, Erik Shirokoff +1
Niobium nitride (NbN) is a useful material for fabricating detectors because of its high critical temperature and relatively high kinetic inductance. In particular, NbN can be used…
Design and Bolometer Characterization of the SPT-3G First-year Focal Plane
W. Everett, P. A. R. Ade, Z. Ahmed +73
During the austral summer of 2016-17, the third-generation camera, SPT-3G, was installed on the South Pole Telescope, increasing the detector count in the focal plane by an order o…
Optical Characterization of the SPT-3G Focal Plane
Zhaodi Pan, Peter Ade, Zeeshan Ahmed +73
The third-generation South Pole Telescope camera is designed to measure the cosmic microwave background across three frequency bands (95, 150 and 220 GHz) with ~16,000 transition-e…
Design and performance of the antenna coupled lumped-element kinetic inductance detector
P. S. Barry, S. Doyle, A. L. Hornsby +5
Focal plane arrays consisting of low-noise, polarisation-sensitive detectors have made possible the pioneering advances in the study of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). To ma…
Reducing the susceptibility of lumped-element KIDs to two-level system effects
A. L. Hornsby, P. S. Barry, S. M. Doyle +2
Arrays of lumped-element kinetic inductance detectors (LEKIDs) optically coupled through an antenna-coupled transmission line are a promising candidate for future cosmic microwave…
Simulating Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropy measurements for Microwave Kinetic Inductance Devices
Ritoban Basu Thakur, Jason Henning, Peter Stuart Barry +2
Microwave Kinetic Inductance Devices (MKIDs) are poised to allow for massively and natively multiplexed photon detectors arrays and are a natural choice for the next-generation CMB…
Fabrication of antenna-coupled KID array for Cosmic Microwave Background detection
Q. Y. Tang, P. S. Barry, R. Basu Thakur +3
Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KIDs) have become an attractive alternative to traditional bolometers in the sub-mm and mm observing community due to their innate frequency multiplex…
ICE: a scalable, low-cost FPGA-based telescope signal processing and networking system
K. Bandura, A. N. Bender, J. F. Cliche +14
We present an overview of the 'ICE' hardware and software framework that implements large arrays of interconnected FPGA-based data acquisition, signal processing and networking nod…
