Abstract:New mid‐infrared HgCdTe (MCT) detector arrays developed in collaboration with Teledyne Imaging Sensors (TIS) have paved the way for improved 10‐m sensors for space‐ and ground‐based observatories. Building on the successful development of longwave HAWAII‐2RGs for space missions such as NEO Surveyor, we characterize the first 13‐m GeoSnap detector manufactured to overcome the challenges of high‐background rates inherent in ground‐based mid‐IR astronomy. This test device merges the longwave HgCdTe photosensitive… Show more
