Teledyne Princeton Instruments (TPI), a business unit of Teledyne Digital Imaging US, Inc, designs and manufactures high-performance CCD, sCMOS, ICCD, EMCCD, emICCD, and InGaAs cameras; spectrographs; and optics-based solutions for the scientific research, industrial imaging, and OEM communities. For more than 40 years, we have been taking part in some of the most exciting scientific discoveries around the world. We have enabled scientists to see reactions as short as picosecond and to observe the sky as distant as the start of the universe.
In this talk, I’ll briefly introduce the Teledyne corporation and its BUs related to astronomy. I’ll then introduce products from Teledyne Princeton Instruments and Teledyne e2v and talk about how they can help astronomers “see what they want to see”. Finally, I’ll introduce the revolutionizing COSMOS camera, the first ever large-format, back-illuminated sCMOS camera with global shutter enabled, and what it means for future sky surveys.
Dr. Ensi Liang obtained his Ph.D. under the supervision of Prof. Jilin Zhou from the School of Astronomy and Space Sciences of Nanjing University, and his B.S. from the Kuang Yaming Honorary School of Nanjing University. During his research years, he mainly focused on developing better data reduction pipeline and detecting and characterizing stellar flares, binaries, variables, and exoplanets from wide-field sky survey data. He was a key member of the Time Domain Observatory (TiDO) and the main operator of the AST3 telescope between 2015 and 2017. He also visited University of California, Santa Cruz and the Carnegie Institution, Washington for more than a year between 2017 and 2018, working on RV data refinement.
He joined Teledyne Princeton Instruments shortly after graduation as an application engineer and is now the Business Development Manager of the Greater China region with a special focus on astronomy.
