    Development of High Performance Detector Technology for UV and Near IR Applications (2018)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-20
    Description: Sensing and imaging for ultraviolet (UV) and nearinfrared (NIR) bands has many applications forNASA, defense, and commercial systems. Recentwork has involved developing UV avalanchephotodiode (UV-APD) arrays with high gain for highresolution imaging. Various GaN/AlGaN p-i-n (PIN)UV-APDs have been fabricated from epitaxialstructures grown by MOCVD on GaN substrates withavalanche gains higher than 5 x 10(exp 5), and significantlyhigher responsivities. Likewise, the SiGe materialsystem allows the demonstration of high-performancedetector array technology that covers the 0.5 to 1.7 mwavelength range for visible and NIR bands ofinterest. We have utilized SiGe fabrication technologyto develop Ge based PIN detector devices on 300 mmSi wafers. We will discuss the theoretical andexperimental results from electrical and opticalcharacterization of the detector devices with variousn+ region doping concentrations to demonstrate low dark currents below 1 uA at -1 V and high photocurrent. Recent results from these detectorarrays for UV and NIR detection will be presented.

    ESTO Investments in Innovative Sensor Technologies for Remote Sensing (2017)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: For more then 18 years NASA Earth Science Technology Office has been investing in remote sensing technologies. During this period ESTO has invested in more then 900 tasks. These tasks are managed under multiple programs like Instrument Incubator Program (IIP), Advanced Component Technology (ACT), Advanced Information Systems Technology (AIST), In-Space Validation of Earth Science Technologies (InVEST), Sustainable Land Imaging - Technology (SLI-T) and others. This covers the whole spectrum of technologies from component to full up satellite in space and software. Over the years many of these technologies have been infused into space missions like Aquarius, SMAP, CYGNSS, SWOT, TEMPO and others. Over the years ESTO is actively investing in Infrared sensor technologies for space applications. Recent investments have been for SLI-T and InVEST program. On these tasks technology development is from simple Bolometers to Advanced Photonic waveguide based spectrometers. Some of the details on these missions and technologies will be presented.

    The 12x32 Pop-Up Bolometer Array for the SHARC II Camera (2002)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-10
    Description: SHARC II is a 350 micron facility camera for the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory (CSO) expected to come on-line in 2002. The key component of SHARC II is a 12x32 array of doped silicon 'pop-up' bolometers developed at NASA/Goddard and delivered to Caltech in March 2002. Each pixel is 1 mm x 1 mm, coated with a 400 Omega/square bismuth film, and located lambda/4 above a reflective backshort to maximize radiation absorption. The pixels cover the focal plane with greater than 95% filling factor. Each doped thermistor occupies nearly the full area of the pixel to minimize 1/f noise. We report some results from the first cold measurements of this array. The bolometers were located inside a dark cover, and 4x32 pixels were read simultaneously. In the best 25% of winter nights on Mauna Kea, SHARC II is expected to have an NEFD at 350 microns of 1 Jy s(sup 1/2) or better.

    Design and Fabrication of Two-Dimensional Semiconducting Bolometer Arrays for the High Resolution Airborne Wideband Camera (HAWC) and the Submillimeter High Angular Resolution Camera II (SHARC-II) (2002)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The High resolution Airborne Wideband Camera (HAWC) and the Submillimeter High Angular Resolution Camera II (SHARC II) will use almost identical versions of an ion-implanted silicon bolometer array developed at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC). The GSFC 'Pop-up' Detectors (PUD's) use a unique folding technique to enable a 12 x 32-element close-packed array of bolometers with a filling factor greater than 95 percent. A kinematic Kevlar(trademark) suspension system isolates the 200 mK bolometers from the helium bath temperature, and GSFC - developed silicon bridge chips make electrical connection to the bolometers, while maintaining thermal isolation. The JFET preamps operate at 120 K. Providing good thermal heat sinking for these, and keeping their conduction and radiation from reaching the nearby bolometers, is one of the principal design challenges encountered. Another interesting challenge is the preparation of the silicon bolometers. They are manufactured in 32-element, planar rows using Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) semiconductor etching techniques, and then cut and folded onto a ceramic bar. Optical alignment using specialized jigs ensures their uniformity and correct placement. The rows are then stacked to create the 12 x 32-element array. Engineering results from the first light run of SHARC II at the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory (CSO) are presented.
