<p>A method for cooling an imaging device includes providing, by a cold finger, a cold sink to the imaging device and conducting heat from a cold shield, a sensor chip assembly and a leadless chip carrier towards the cold finger through a plurality of parallel paths. The imaging device includes a dewar assembly having a cold shield, a sensor chip assembly disposed on a leadless chip carrier (LCC) and configured to capture an infrared image, a cold finger configured to cool the dewar assembly; and a thermal adapter. The thermal adapter is configured to draw heat from the cold shield and sensor chip assembly through a plurality of parallel paths towards the cold finger.</p> |
