-|June 29, 2022|Scientific CCD Development at MIT Lincoln Laboratory  (Christopher Leitz)\\ //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.// |yes|  +|Nov 2, 2022|IgNobel Awards.//could be older or newest//|yes|PeterA
