Lumped element kinetic inductance detectors maturity for space-borne instruments in the range between 80 and 180 GHz
A. Catalano, A. Benoit, O. Bourrion +7
This work intends to give the state-of-the-art of our knowledge of the performance of LEKIDs at millimetre wavelengths (from 80 to 180~GHz). We evaluate their optical sensitivity u…
High angular resolution Sunyaev-Zel'dovich observations of MACS J1423.8+2404 with NIKA: Multiwavelength analysis
R. Adam, B. Comis, I. Bartalucci +42
The prototype of the NIKA2 camera, NIKA, is an instrument operating at the IRAM 30-m telescope, which can observe simultaneously at 150 and 260GHz. One of the main goals of NIKA2 i…
Uniform non-stoichiometric titanium nitride thin films for improved kinetic inductance detector array
G. Coiffard, K-F. Schuster, E. F. C. Driessen +5
We describe the fabrication of homogeneous sub-stoichiometric titanium nitride films for microwave kinetic inductance detector (mKID) arrays. Using a 6 inch sputtering target and a…
First polarised light with the NIKA camera
A. Ritacco, R. Adam, A. Adane +39
NIKA is a dual-band camera operating with 315 frequency multiplexed LEKIDs cooled at 100 mK. NIKA is designed to observe the sky in intensity and polarisation at 150 and 260 GHz fr…
