Inductively Coupled Plasma Etching for Delineation of InAs/GaSb Pixels

We developed 320x256 Complimentary Barrier Infrared (CBIRD) focal plane array (FPA) for long wave infrared (LWIR) imaging application. The FPA layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) had 300 periods 1.9 micro m thick absorber. The CBIRD arrays showed the mean dark current density of 2.2 x 10(exp -4) A/cm2, when 128 mV bias voltage was applied. The long wave cut off was observed at 8.8 micrometers at the 50% peak and the maximum quantum efficiency was 54% at 5.6 micrometers. The arrays had 81% fill factor with 97% operability with noise equivalent difference temperature (NE(delta)T) of 18.6 mK and a mean detectivity of D*=1.3 x 10(exp 11) Hz(exp 1/2)/W.

Fine Pitch Grids for an X-Ray Solar Imaging Spectrometer Fabricated by Optical Lithography and XeF2 Etching

Fine-pitch, sub-collimating X-ray grids have been developed for an instrument in the High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager , a proposed NASA mission. In addition to high-energy x- rays, the instrument requires collimation of photons with energies of less than 4 keV such that free-standing grids are required that have no material between the grid slats. Fabrication of these grids is described.
