<title>Wide-field-of-view PtSi infrared focal plane array</title>

Abstract

A 640 x 486 pixel monolithic focal plane array detector using PtSi Schottky barrier photodiodes was developed. This detector uses 1.2-micron design rules to achieve a 54-percent fill factor with 25-micron square pixels. The detector array used an interline CCD configuration with a progressive scan (noninterlaced) readout of the field, and two-phase clocking of both the vertical and horizontal registers.
