3 IT Collaboratory 2009 Research Symposium The Top Five Science Drivers for Detectors: Earth System Science 1.What is causing change in Earth’s climate? 2.What is required to make the 10-day weather forecast as good as the 1-day forecast today? 3.How is carbon content changing? What are the fine spatial scale processes that drive this change? How does that affect the global Earth system? 4.Air pollution 5.Water 6.How does the Sun affect the upper atmosphere? How are changes in Earth’s magnetic field related to atmospheric chemistry and other environmental change? 7.What is required to forecast earthquakes and other seismic-driven natural disasters? 3

4 IT Collaboratory 2009 Research Symposium The Top Detector Characteristics for: Earth Systems Science 1.Broad wavelength sensitivity: extend routine imaging detector operation farther out into the infrared (300 microns) and into the ultraviolet 2.Ability to calibrate signal very accurately which requires detector response repeatability over a range of time scales (0.001 Hz – 1000 Hz), minimal optical and electrical crosstalk, minimum latent or residual signal 3.Large format (>10K x 10K) 4.Low dark current and read noise for high spectral resolution applications, especially 5.In-pixel wavelength measurement 6.Lower power, higher temperature operation 7.Lower cost manufacturing and operation to reduce cost for developing imagers and remote sensors onboard constellations of satellites, UAVs and other platforms 8.High dynamic range: 1 - 1E8 photons per integration time 9.High speed capabilities with low noise 4
