An analysis for the broad-band absorption enhancement using plasmonic structures on uncooled infrared detector pixels
(SPIE, 2012-05)This paper introduces an analysis on the absorption enhancement in uncooled infrared pixels using resonant plasmon modes in metal structures, and it reports, for the first time in literature, broad-band absorption enhancement ... -
Atomic-layer-deposited zinc oxide as tunable uncooled infrared microbolometer material
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2014)ZnO is an attractive material for both electrical and optical applications due to its wide bandgap of 3.37 eV and tunable electrical properties. Here, we investigate the application potential of atomic-layer-deposited ZnO ... -
Broadband absorption enhancement in an uncooled microbolometer infrared detector
(SPIE, 2014)This paper introduces a method for a broadband absorption enhancement in the LWIR range (8-12 μm), in single layer microbolometer pixels with 35 μm pitch. For the first time in the literature, this study introduces a very ... -
Digitally alloyed ZnO and TiO2 thin film thermistors by atomic layer deposition for uncooled microbolometer applications
(AVS Science and Technology Society, 2017)The authors demonstrate the digital alloying of ZnO and TiO2 via atomic layer deposition method to be utilized as the active material of uncooled microbolometers. Depositions are carried out at 200 °C. Crystallinity of the ... -
LWIR all-atomic layer deposition ZnO bilayer microbolometer for thermal imaging
(SPIE, 2017)We propose an all-ZnO bilayer microbolometer, operating in the long-wave infrared regime that can be implemented by consecutive atomic layer deposition growth steps. Bilayer design of the bolometer provides very high ... -
Modeling of thermal sensitivity of a fiber optic gyroscope coil with practical quadrupole winding
(SPIE, 2017)Thermally induced bias error is one of the main performance limits for the fiber optic gyroscopes (FOGs). We reviewed the thermal sensitivity of FOG in detail and created a simulation environment by the Finite Element ... -
A plasmonically enhanced pixel structure for uncooled microbolometer detectors
(2013)This paper introduces a method of broadband absorption enhancement that can be integrated with the conventional suspended microbolometer process with no significant additional cost. The premise of this study is that electric ... -
Target differentiation with infrared sensors using statistical pattern recognition techniques
(2006)This study compares the performances of different statistical pattern recognition techniques to differentiation of commonly encountered features or targets in indoor environments, such as planes, corners, edges, and ...
