Characterising the SCUBA-2 superconducting bolometer arrays. Amiri, Mandana; Burger, Bryce; Halpern, Mark; Hasselfield, Matthew
Abstract
SCUBA-2 is a state of the art 10,000 pixel submillimeter camera installed and being commissioned at the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) providing wide-field simultaneous imaging at wavelengths of 450 and 850 microns. At each wavelength there are four 32 by 40 sub-arrays of superconducting Transition Edge Sensor (TES) bolometers, each packaged with inline SQUID multiplexed readout and amplifier. In this paper we present the results of characterising individual 1280 bolometer science grade sub-arrays, both in a dedicated 50mk dilution refrigerator test facility and in the instrument installed at the JCMT.

SCUBA-2 is a state of the art 10,000 pixel submillimeter camera installed and being commissioned at the James Clerk Maxwell
Telescope (JCMT) providing wide-field simultaneous imaging at wavelengths of 450 and 850 microns. At each wavelength
there are four 32 by 40 sub-arrays of superconducting Transition Edge Sensor (TES) bolometers, each packaged with inline
SQUID multiplexed readout and amplifier. In this paper we present the results of characterising individual 1280 bolometer
science grade sub-arrays, both in a dedicated 50mk dilution refrigerator test facility and in the instrument installed at
the JCMT.
