论文摘要
我们介绍了C-Blue One摄像机家族(以前是C-More),这是激光导向星级的波兰传感器摄像头家族的演变。在已设定开发LGS摄像机的Opticon WP2欧洲资助项目中,必须探索基于现有传感器的快速路径解决方案,以便为准备第一个轻度时间表的ELT项目提供工具型相机。这项研究的结果是,C-Blue One是一个基于CMOS的相机,具有1600x1100像素(9UM螺距)和481 FPS刷新速率。已经开发出来,以回答未来激光基于激光的自适应光学系统(LGS)的大多数需求,该系统将在20-40m级的望远镜以及较小的望远镜上部署。我们介绍了相机的主要特征,并在噪声,深色电流,量子效率和图像质量方面进行了测量的性能,这是应用程序的关键参数。该摄像机也以较小的格式(800x600x1500fps)和大格式(3200x2200x250fps)降低,以涵盖大多数AO应用程序。
We present the evolutions of the C-BLUE One family of cameras (formerly introduced as C-MORE), a laser guide star oriented wavefront sensor camera family. Within the Opticon WP2 european funded project, which has been set to develop LGS cameras, fast path solutions based on existing sensors had to be explored to provide working-proven cameras to ELT projects ready for the first light schedule. Result of this study, C-BLUE One is a CMOS based camera with 1600x1100 pixels (9um pitch) and 481 FPS refresh rate. It has been developed to answer most of the needs of future laser based adaptive optics systems (LGS) to be deployed on 20-40m-class telescopes as well as on smaller ones. We present the main features of the camera and measured performance in terms of noise, dark current, quantum efficiency and image quality which are the key parameters for the application. The camera has been declined also in fast smaller format (800x600x1500FPS) and large format (3200X2200x250FPS) to cover most of the AO applications.
