Multi-spectral uncooled microbolometer detectors

摘要

A process and system for a medium wave infrared (MWIR) uncooled microbolometer focal plane array (FPA). One embodiment is for a single MWIR band uncooled IR detector, wherein the design and fabrication utilizes standard silicon processing techniques reducing manufacturing costs and preserving existing manufacturing capabilities. Another embodiment is a two color uncooled microbolometer IR detector providing broadband detection.
