(Chow, J. C.; Shaw, G. A.; Kostishack, Daniel F.; Savoye, E. D.; Burke, Barry E.; etc.). UNCLASSIFIED: CCD IMAGER TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER SEMINAR 13 DECEMBER 1989: MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY LINCOLN LABORATORY. Lexington, MA: Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1989. Quarto, 11 inches high by 8-3/4 inches wide. Spiral bound clear stiff plastic over stiff printed white wraps. There are minor indentations to the rear cover. 405 pages, profusely illustrated throughout including many full-page illustrations and diagrams. Very good.
Additional material is laid in at the front, including a 47-page stapled program description "MIT Lincoln Laboratory Advanced Electro-Optical Technology Program (WPD - S617)". The 8-1/2 inch high by 11 inch wide program includes a "Program Overview" by J. C. Chow, "Advanced CCD Technology for Visible / UV" by Barry E. Burke; and "Advanced Processing Technology for Step-Stare Sensor" by G. A. Shaw.
Also laid in is a mechanically reproduced map with directions to the Lincoln Laboratory and a 2-page "Agenda" for the "MIT Lincoln Laboratory Satellite Survivability Program: Grumman Visit". There are a couple of tiny tears to the edges of the map.
An integrated circuit containing an array of linked, or coupled capacitors under the control of an external circuit, "CCD" (charge-coupled device) is a major technology used in digital imaging. Although largely replaced by CMOS sensors over the last several years, CCD image sensors are still used in some professional, medical, and scientific applications where high quality image data is required.
Located in Lexington, Massachusetts, the MIT Lincoln Laboratory is chartered and funded by the Department of Defense as a research and development center to come up with applications of advanced technology to problems of national security.
