Advanced characterisation of focal planes

Challenge

– Develop a technique to measure intra-pixel responses for large Focal Plane Arrays : Application to Cosmic Vision program (EUCLID, PLATO)
– Successful partnership between two FOCUS labs bringing their own skills 
IRFU : Advanced characterizations of FPAs for scientific space missions
ONERA : MTF measurement of IRFPAs by use of self imaging techniques).
