Detector arrays Sample Clauses

Detector arrays. At the heart of the instrument are the detector arrays which are crucial to achieving the science goals of the mission. The detectors must operate with high efficiency over the spectral range of the instrument and meet the demanding sensitivity requirements. Kinetic inductance detectors are the most promising candidate for the choice of detector technology at the current time. They also have the potential to be mass-produced into the large-format arrays needed for low-background operation at these wavelengths. However, other technologies should not be precluded at this stage with the final choice being made after further assessment. R4.6.1: The choice of detector technology will be down-selected from an assessment of the available options at the time. To produce an instantaneous, fully (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇) sampled image of the sky requires that the detectors be spaced by 0.5Fλ in the re-imaged focal plane (where F is the focal ratio of the final optics). This will be assumed to be the preferred pixel spacing pending further discussion on the relative merits of using bare arrays, feedhorns or Winston cones to couple to the telescope beam.
