APSOLUTE - BOLD
http://bold.sidc.be/imagers/apsolute
BOLD - GSTP Team Members. 1st of February 2016. Site to visit: related publication. APSOLUTE is a back-side illuminated (BSI) CMOS image sensor made in 0.18 μm CMOS process with 10 µm pixel pitch pinned photodiode. The EUV sensitivity is achieved with backside illumination on a Silicon-on-Insulator material based solution. The epitaxial silicon layer is thinned down to less than 3 μm. Apsolute prototype (256x256) contains 16 pixel variants organized in blocks of 64x64 pixels. The sensor applied a so-call...

Imagers - BOLD
http://bold.sidc.be/imagers
BOLD - GSTP Team Members. 1st of February 2016. This section addresses particularly the definition, development, and experimental characterization of imagers (based on Si or AlGaN material), with emphasis on Active Pixel Sensors (APS), and on their associated proximity electronics. The application wavelengths can include the electromagnetic spectrum from the visible to gamma rays, with special interest in the EUV range (i.e., 10. SWAP (Sun Watcher with Active Pixels and Image Processing) is a single-band...

BOLD - GSTP Team Members. 1st of February 2016. Site to visit: Project web site at IMEC. This project (ESA-BOLD #19947/06/NLPM) involves a subset of the BOLD consortium, but represents a collaboration between the Belgian and French BOLD partners (IMEC, CRHEA, ROB, ESA) needed for the technological evaluation of a focal-plane array demonstrator with the goal of developing new solar-blind APS detectors using wide-bandgap materials.

Diamond - BOLD
http://bold.sidc.be/photodetectors-wbgm/diamond
BOLD - GSTP Team Members. 1st of February 2016. Diamond for EUV-VUV solar observations. Diamond (C*) is a wide bandgap semiconductor (Bandgap energy of 5.5 eV, i.e. 220 nm at room temperature), which makes the sensors ‘solar-blind’: insensitive to the solar spectrum below the Earth atmosphere (at sea level) with a good UV/visible response ratio. LYRA PIN diamond detector. LYRA MSM diamond photodetectors. Is a solar EUV-VUV radiometer onboard the PROBA2 micro satellite. LYRA benefits from wide bandgap...
