Scientific paper

A novel hybrid IR-sensitive array for astronomical observations in the 1-5 micron spectral region is presented whose photovoltaic indium antimonide detector material is bump-bonded to a silicon substrate containing the MOS direct-readout multiplexer. Attention is given to preliminary results on quantum efficiency, dark current, noise, linearity, cosmic-ray response, and imaging characteristics for ground-based astronomy. It is suggested that an even greater impact will result from these devices than was experienced with CCDs for optical astronomy in the mid-1970s.
