Abstract
The SAFARI instrument is a far-infrared imaging
Fourier transform spectrometer for JAXA’s SPICA mission.
Taking advantage of the low emission of SPICA’s 5 K telescope,
SAFARI will provide background-limited, Nyquist-sampled
spectroscopic imaging of a 2’x2’ field-of-view over 34-210 μm,
revolutionizing far-infrared astronomy.
SAFARI’s aggressive science goals drive the development of a
unique detector system combining large-format Transition Edge
Sensor arrays and frequency division multiplexed SQUID
readout with a high 160x multiplexing factor. The detectors and
their cold readout electronics are packaged into 3 focal plane
arrays that will be integrated into SAFARI’s focal plane unit.
This paper presents the preliminary design concept for the
SAFARI detector system.
