Infrared focal planes-an evaluation

W. D. Baker

Abstract

Recent progress in infrared focal plane array technology has been impressive and has aroused strong systems interest. This paper will summarize the present general state of focal plane development and will identify some of the major technology issues still to be resolved. Some of the implications of the properties of focal plane arrays for systems design will be discussed.
