PRIMA prototype spaceflight KID readout electronics laboratory characterization
Adrian K. Sinclair, Chris Albert, C. Matt Bradford +28
We present further development and testing of prototype kinetic inductance detector (KID) readout electronics for the PRobe far-Infrared Mission for Astrophysics (PRIMA). PRIMA is…
Nonequilibrium pulse dynamics and metastable latching in nonlinear kinetic inductance detectors
M. Rouble, C. Albert, P. Day +3
Microwave kinetic inductance detectors are typically operated at high readout power to raise the detector signal above system noise. At sufficiently large readout power, the curren…
Spatial Mapping and Capacitor Trimming Developments to Improve Usable Pixel Yield in PRIMA FIRESS Kilo-Pixel Arrays
Chris Albert, Jonathon Hunacek, Hien Nguyen +14
The Probe far-Infrared Mission for Astrophysics (PRIMA) will use 8 kilo-pixel kinetic inductance detector (KID) arrays in its spectrometer module. We present an improved resonant f…
Radiation Total Dose for PRIMA: Cold Exposure with Alpha Particles
Elijah Kane, Chris Albert, Andrew Beyer +11
The Probe far-Infrared Mission for Astrophysics (PRIMA) is a far-infrared (24-261 micron wavelengths) probe-class space observatory currently under Phase A study, which promises or…
In Situ Interferometric Spatial Mapping Of A Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector Array
Chris Albert, Ritoban Basu Thakur, Farzad Faramarzi +7
We present a method of spatially mapping microwave kinetic inductance detector (MKID) arrays, in a dark setup. MKIDs are superconducting natively multiplexed resonators which enabl…
