Corrugated Quantum Well Infrared Photodetector Focal Plane Array Test Results

The corrugated quantum-well infrared photodetector (C-QWIP) uses total internal reflection to couple normal incident light into the optically active quantum wells. The coupling efficiency has been shown to be relatively independent of the pixel size and wavelength thus making the C-QWIP a candidate for detectors over the entire infrared spectrum. The broadband coupling efficiency of the C-QWIP ...

Fast Adaptive Nonuniformity Correction for Infrared Focal-Plane Array Detectors

A novel adaptive scene-based nonuniformity correction technique is presented. The technique simultaneously estimates detector parameters and performs the nonuniformity correction based on the retina-like neural network approach. The proposed method includes the use of an adaptive learning rate rule in the gain and offset parameter estimation process. This learning rate rule, together with a red...

Robust Approach for Nonuniformity Correction in Infrared Focal Plane Array

In this paper, we propose a new scene-based nonuniformity correction technique for infrared focal plane arrays. Our work is based on the use of two well-known scene-based methods, namely, adaptive and interframe registration-based exploiting pure translation motion model between frames. The two approaches have their benefits and drawbacks, which make them extremely effective in certain conditio...

Focal Plane Array Optical Focusing and Alignment

A need for active adjustment of a focal plane array (FPA) exists for space based telescopes at Sandia National Laboratories. Legacy systems relied upon manual alignment of the FPA to the optics train. The alignment was done by checking the image then adjusting the position of the FPA with shims, repeated until the desired alignment and focus were achieved. This approach has several drawbacks, i...

Derivative Based Focal Plane Array Nonuniformity Correction

This paper presents a fast and robust method for fixed pattern noise nonuniformity correction of infrared focal plane arrays. The proposed method requires neither shutter nor elaborate calibrations and therefore enables a real time correction with no interruptions. Based on derivative estimation of the fixed pattern noise from pixel sized translations of the focal plane array, the proposed meth...
