Scientific paper
It is pointed out that next-generation sensors for earth observation will utilize Multispectral Linear Array (MLA) technology wherein linear detector arrays will scan the earth in pushbroom fashion. MLA instruments will permit a dramatic increase in detector dwell time, which can be utilized to improve spatial, spectral, and radiometric resolution. In connection with the considered applications for MLA sensors, the employed detector arrays should cover the visible, near-infrared, and shortwave infrared (SWIR) spectral bands. The present paper is mainly concerned with the development of mercury-cadmium-telluride focal-plane arrays for the SWIR spectral regime (1-2.5 microns). Attention is given to the requirements, design details regarding the detector array, the employed multiplexer technique, the hybrid concept, packaging, and the program status.
