Abstract: | Summary An infra-red detector produced by the Elettronica SPA Company for the European Space Agency to be used in the Earth surface mapping from aircraft has been tested in our laboratory. We present the characteristics of the detector working in the spectral range (1÷2.5) μm. The acquisition system and the electronics are discussed and a detailed study of all the noise sources is presented; the measured NEP is 3.2·10−14W Hz−1/2 at a temperature of 108 K. Paper presented at the V Cosmic Physics National Conference, S. Miniato, November 27–30, 1990. |
