(Christopher Leitz)<br>
<i>The Advanced Imager Technology group at MIT Lincoln Laboratory designs
and fabricates detectors and readout circuits for imaging applications in
support of National Security and scientific exploration. The group has a long
history of supplying silicon charge-coupled devices (CCDs) for the astronomy
community, including detectors for the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite
(TESS), the Advanced CC Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) on Chandra, and the 1.3
gigapixel array for Pan-STARRS at the University of Hawaii. In this talk, we
outline both our history in providing these devices for the scientific
community and highlight future directions in CCD development – notably use of
new detector materials to achieve broader optical response, new fabrication
processes to enable lower power consumption, and development of new readout
amplifiers for virtually nearly noise-free operation – for applications in
X-ray astrophysics, optical astronomy, and particle physics.</i><span></span></span></p>
