DMDs for multi-object near-infrared spectrographs in astronomy

Emerging Digital Micromirror Device Based Systems and Applications X, 2018
The Digital Micromirror Device (DMD), typically used in projection screen technology, has utility in instrumentation for astronomy as a digitally programmable slit in a spectrograph. When placed at an imaging focal plane the device can be used to selectively direct light from astronomical targets into the optical path of a spectrograph, while at the ...

The SAPHIRA detector: a near-infrared photon counter for astronomy

Advanced Photon Counting Techniques XIII, 2019
The SAPHIRA is currently the only astronomical device capable of counting photons in the NIR while showing other performance easily comparable to the ubiquitous HAWAII arrays. Photon counting was previously only available in astronomy with high dark currents, prohibiting observation of many astronomical targets.

Microwave kinetic inductance detectors for visible to near infrared astronomy (Conference Presentation)

High Energy, Optical, and Infrared Detectors for Astronomy VIII, 2018
Mazin Lab at UCSB is developing MKID instrument for astronomy at near infrared, optical and ultraviolet wavelength. We use MIKDs as single photon detectors by measuring the arrival time of incoming photons with an accuracy of a few microseconds and with a relatively high energy resolution (R~10 at 1um).

Polarization gratings for visible and near-infrared astronomy

Proceedings of SPIE, 2014
We report on the development of polarization gratings that can be used for polarimetry and/or high throughput broadband spectroscopy in astronomy. Polarization gratings are able to overcome fundamental limitations on the diffraction efficiency of conventional gratings to provide near 100% diffraction efficiency over a broad bandwidth.
