Effect of total dose proton irradiation on the performance of Kinetic Inductance Detectors for far-Infrared space observatory
A. Besnard, G. Conenna, V. Sauvage +5
Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KIDs) are a promising technology for future space missions, where exposure to high-energy particles may affect detector performance. In this work, we…
Successful irradiation campaign on PRIMA/PRIMAger KIDs detectors with DRACuLA
Valentin Sauvage, Anaïs Besnard, Giulia Conenna +4
DRACuLA (Detector irRAdiation Cryogenic faciLity for Astrophysics) is a mobile dilution refrigerator platform developed at the Institut d'Astrophysique Spatiale (IAS) to expose sub…
Lens based Kinetic Inductance Detectors with Distributed Dual Polarised Absorbers for Far Infra-red Space-based Astronomy
Shahab O. Dabironezare, Giulia Conenna, Daan Roos +16
Future space-based far infra-red astronomical observations require background limited detector sensitivities and scalable focal plane array solutions to realise their vast potentia…
PROTOCALC: an artificial calibrator source for CMB telescopes
Gabriele Coppi, Giulia Conenna, Sofia Savorgnano +5
Cosmic Microwave Background experiments need to measure polarization properties of the incoming radiation very accurately to achieve their scientific goals. As a result of that, it…
