Scientific paper

Two recent demonstrations of diffractive optics for uncooled staring 8 - 12 micrometers infrared imagers are reviewed and critically examined. Although each demonstration by itself yielded impressive results, when viewed from a broader system standpoint and considering current state-of-the-art in uncooled detector arrays, it is concluded that there is not a compelling reason to use diffractive elements in current systems. Alternatives are suggested.
