Development of Charge Transfer Devices for 1-2 Micron Imaging.
Abstract
Currently no satisfactory solid state imaging device exists for use in near infrared applications. While transmission photocathodes are most often used, their spectral response rapidly falls off for lambda > or = 0.99 micrometers due to the minimum vacuum level which can be achieved with a cesiated III-V semiconductor surface. These devices are thus suitable for use in those night vision systems which operate in the visible or near-infrared spectrum under low level moonlight and starlight illumination. (Author)
