Optical and near-IR Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors, or MKIDs, are superconducting photon counting detectors capable of measuring the energy and arrival time of individual OIR photons without read noise or dark current. In this whitepaper we will discuss the current status of OIR MKIDs and MKID-based instruments.

  1. Tolerancing the PIAA-ZWFS: a practical and robust wavefront sensor that approaches the fundamental sensitivity limit

    astro-ph.IM 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Typical manufacturing and alignment errors do not significantly degrade the PIAA-ZWFS's wavefront sensing performance, preserving a large margin over a standard ZWFS.
