10.6 Micrometer Detector Array

Abstract

Analyses were performed on various aspects of the multielement heterodyne technology including high density cabling techniques, image plane dissection to provide 10 x 10 (100 element) spatial elements, heating effects in a matrix array, and 4 K cooler requirements to obtain the desired system sensitivity. Measurements were carried out on HgCdTe photodiodes that showed cutoff frequencies of greater than 200 MHz and a maximum noise equivalent power (NEP) of 1.7 x 10 to the minus 19th power W/Hz over the 200 MHz bandwidth.
