  9. IDTL Measurements: Dark Current • Lowest measured dark current is ~0.006 e-/s/pixel.

  10. IDTL Measurements: Read Noise • Read noise is ~10 e- for large number of reads. (system read noise is ~2.5 e-)

  11. IDTL Measurements: Gain

  12. Hawaii 1R with 5 um Cutoff

  13. IDTL Test System

  14. IDTL Measurements: AQE • QE measurements have an accuracy of ~10%.

  15. IDTL Measurements: RQE • Relative QE maps show significant variations across field
