QWIP

AlGaAs quantum well infrared photodetector (QWIP) focal planes have achieved sufficient sensitivity out to 10-p.m wavelength to result in scene temperature sensitivity of ca 0.2°C when the focal plane is cooled to 77 K. Spectral sensitivity is shown in Eigure 9c and array information is given in Table 1. The supedattice, a newer tool for achieving controlled activation energy, should present many alternative infrared detection techniques. [Pg.436]

FLIR devices can be divided in two classes by their detecting waveband. Mid-IR detectors, like the StarSAFIRE series mentioned above, are commonly used in humid environments since they show less signal depression by water vapour. However the detection of oil spills shows variable results and is not favourable as a stand-alone sensor for this purpose. Long-IR detectors (8-14 pm, sometimes realised by QWIP detectors with smaller... [Pg.261]

The newest and perhaps most versatile of the detectors shown is the QWIP array. QWIP detectors are made from gallium arsenide (GaAs) material. These detectors are narrow-band, high-speed, high-sensitivity detectors that can be designed to operate in selected narrow bands from the MWIR (2-5 pm) to the LWIR (8-14 pm). The versatility of this detector, as well as others, will be illustrated in the applications chapters in Part II of this text. [Pg.29]

For special applications where high speed, improved sensitivity, or spectral selectivity is required, cooled photodetector arrays are used. These include PtSi, InSb, HgCdTe, and most recently GaAs QWIPs, all of which require cooling. The spectral response characteristics of these detectors are illustrated in Fig. 2.16. [Pg.55]

For special applications involving high-speed phenomena, high-thermal sensitivity, and processing flexibility at longer wavelengths, the detector of choice has become the GaAs QWIP FPA. [Pg.57]

Early devices using lattice-engineered materials were referred to as quantum well infrared photodetectors (QWIPs), then as quantum dot infrared photodetectors (QDIPs), but now it is difficult to separate them from other natural materials. [Pg.165]
