NIT manufacture PbSe infrared detectors using a process called VPD (Vapor Phase Deposition) which enables the manufacture of bidimensional Focal Plane Arrays. The main characteristics of these VPD PbSe detectors are:
– Complex detectors (Focal Plane Arrays),
– Detection in the MWIR range (3 – 5 microns),
– Uncooled performance at room temperature (D* > 10^9 Jones),
– Photonic detection (time constant under 5 microsec).
TACHYON FPAs combine integrated readout circuitry (ROIC) and fully uncooled MWIR performance, available as 32 x 32 or 128 x 128 pixel formats. The microCORE TACHYON module offers optimized size and is easy to integrate into cost sensitive machine vision or process control applications at an affordable cost.
