Several space-borne infrared detectors require cryogenic temperatures for successful operation. As a result, mission durations are substantially limited due to cryogen evaporation. The electrical leads connecting the detectors to the amplification electronics comprise a significant portion of the he
This is the fifth of a seven part series on the potential applications of superconductivity in space. The potential of superconducting microwave and infrared detectors for space applications is reviewed. The devices considered include bolometers, super-Schottky diodes and Josephson junctions operati
