论文摘要
Origins太空望远镜是2020年Astrophysic Decadal调查的四个旗舰任务之一。起源于2.8-588 $μ$ m,在空间中部署了5.9 m的冷(4.5 K)望远镜,在近,中和远红外的敏感性从2.8-588 $ $ m。这要求在所有原始仪器中使用超敏感和稳定的探测器。目前,尚无已知探测器在接近至中红外的起源稳定性要求,或在远红外的灵敏度要求。在这项工作中,我们讨论了过渡边缘传感器的适用性,因为量热量计和验光仪都可以满足这些要求,并为改善当前最新面临的途径铺平了道路。
The Origins Space Telescope is one of four flagship missions under study for the 2020 Astrophysics Decadal Survey. With a 5.9 m cold (4.5 K) telescope deployed from space, Origins promises unprecedented sensitivity in the near-, mid-, and far-infrared, from 2.8 - 588 $μ$m. This mandates the use of ultra-sensitive and stable detectors in all of the Origins instruments. At the present, no known detectors can meet Origins' stability requirements in the near- to mid-infrared, or its sensitivity requirements in the far-infrared. In this work, we discuss the applicability of transition-edge sensors, as both calorimeters and bolometers, to meet these requirements, and lay out a path toward improving the present state-of-the-art.
