Abstract
An all-silicon LWIR staring focal plane technology is described which has the potential of exceptionally high uniformity and resolution, 77K operation, and a demonstrated electronic tunability of the cut-off wavelength. p/sup +/np homojunction internal barrier detectors have quantum efficiencies of over 5% from 4.5 to 9.5 mu m and 0.2% at 12 mu m, exceeding the performance of all other internal photoemission detectors. Imagery (using a 8-11.5 mu m passband filter) with 128*128 p/sup +/np detector arrays bonded to silicon p-channel CMOS multiplexers was successfully demonstrated.<>
