Characterization of Low-noise Backshort-Under-Grid Kilopixel Transition Edge Sensor Arrays for PIPER
Rahul Datta, Sumit Dahal, Eric R. Switzer +8
We present laboratory characterization of kilo-pixel, filled backshort-under-grid (BUG) transition-edge sensor (TES) arrays developed for the Primordial Inflation Polarization Expl…
Optical Characterization & Testbed Development for μ-Spec Integrated Spectrometers
Maryam Rahmani, Alyssa Barlis, Emily M. Barrentine +21
This paper describes a cryogenic optical testbed developed to characterize u-Spec spectrometers in a dedicated dilution refrigerator (DR) system. u-Spec is a far-infrared integrate…
Developing a New Generation of Integrated Micro-Spec Far Infrared Spectrometers for the EXperiment for Cryogenic Large-Aperture Intensity Mapping (EXCLAIM)
Carolyn G. Volpert, Emily M. Barrentine, Mona Mirzaei +21
The current state of far-infrared astronomy drives the need to develop compact, sensitive spectrometers for future space and ground-based instruments. Here we present details of th…
Operational Optimization to Maximize Dynamic Range in EXCLAIM Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors
Trevor M. Oxholm, Eric R. Switzer, Emily M. Barrentine +11
Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors (MKIDs) are highly scalable detectors that have demonstrated nearly background-limited sensitivity in the far-infrared from high-altitude bal…
Probing Cosmic Inflation with the LiteBIRD Cosmic Microwave Background Polarization Survey
LiteBIRD Collaboration, E. Allys, K. Arnold +188
LiteBIRD, the Lite (Light) satellite for the study of B-mode polarization and Inflation from cosmic background Radiation Detection, is a space mission for primordial cosmology and…
