摘要 |
The present invention provides a monolithic integrated detector array for detecting both infrared, IR, and millimeter wave, MMW, energy. Elements include an integrated circuit substrate having both IR sensing elements and MMW antenna elements formed within a predetermined area thereon, said IR sensing elements including a first multiplicity of IR sensing elements substantially evenly distributed across the predetermined area of the substrate, said MMW antenna elements including a second multiplicity of antenna elements distributed over the predetermined area with individual antenna elements being located between individual IR sensing elements; and lens means substantially covering the predetermined area for collecting substantially all of the IR energy incident thereon and for distributing collected IR energy to the multiplicity of IR sensing elements, said lens means being adapted to be substantially transparent to MMW energy incident upon the predetermined area.
