TEST RESULTS WITH 2KX2K MCT ARRAYS Finger, G, Dorn, R.J., Mehrgan, H., Meyer, M., Moorwood A.F.M. and Stegmeier, J. European Southern Observatory Abstract: The performance of both an LPE 2Kx2K engineering grade and a science grade array have been evaluated. Both arrays have a cut-off wavelength of c=2.6 µm. At an operating temperature of 60 K, the dark current of the science grade array is 0.004 e/s. The peak quantum efficiency of the science grade array is 84.4%. ...

Studies in the field of space device engineering conducted at the department are mostly connected with long experience in developing techniques for s/c real-time precision orientation. Further investigations are aimed at both tracker design perfection and their software development. Creation of the BOKZ star trackers modifications became the main result of these works. The main goal of our studies consists in star trackers reliabiliry increase under mass and power consumption reduction. ...
