A monolithic 128 x 128 InSb array is described for staring infrared imaging systems operating in the 3 -5pm spectral region. The array is fabricated with only 4 mask levels and has almost 5 times higher responsivity and nearly 14 times greater wafer yield as compared to a previous design. The higher responsivity has resulted in demonstration of significantly improved thermal imagery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
