- Description
- Full DARPA-BAA-09-48 document DARPA seeks innovative proposals that address the development of antenna coupled infrared detectors operating at room temperature and sensitive in the 3-5um spectral band, and the design and fabrication of large area, high density focal plane arrays (FPAs) based upon the antenna coupled detectors. The program addresses technology to establish the feasibility of antenna coupled detectors with pixel linear dimension equal to the detected wavelength, 5 um; the interconnection of these small size devices to read-out integrated circuits; and imaging demonstrations with large area arrays, 2048x2048 elements. The technology is based upon collecting infrared radiation with an antenna at each pixel, and coupling the infrared radiation into a semiconductor device with response at the frequency of the radiation. The program integrates expertise in optical micro-antenna and high speed semiconductor technologies with the infrared detection and focal plane technologies, and the development of state of the art infrared imaging arrays. The integration of these technologies results in an imaging array with unique attributes, establishing a new paradigm for infrared imaging. All administrative correspondence and questions on this solicitation, including requests for information on how to submit a full proposal to this BAA, should be directed to DARPA-BAA-09-48@darpa.mil. See full BAA document attached.
