Time Response of a Bolometer<br />
Detection of Light: <strong>Lecture</strong> <strong>10</strong><br />
T0<br />
Adding an astronomical source represented as a time<br />
varying component:<br />
Heat sink Bolometer<br />
Thermal link<br />
⌘PV (t) = dQ<br />
dt<br />
= C dT1<br />
dt<br />
Where ⌘ is quantum efficiency, Q is thermal energy,<br />
and C = dQ/dT1 is the heat capacity [J/K]<br />
PV (t)
