Uncooled bolometric detectors used in infrared-imaging systems have slow time constants (ϳ15 ms), which makes them impractical for fast-frame-rate applications. Antenna-coupled microbolometers are fast uncooled detectors with good sensitivity and directivity, and they can be polarization and wavelen

Abstract
In this paper, a novel arrangement for dual‐band millimeter‐wave and infrared focal plane array based on slot‐antenna‐coupled metal‐oxide‐metal diodes is demonstrated. The receiving properties for millimeter‐wave and infrared antenna‐coupled detector pixels are presented. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract A low‐profile 60‐GHz antenna array has been designed, built, and tested. The design uses a circular waveguide radiator for bandwidth, a stripline distribution network for minimum thickness and flexibility, and a waveguide input for interfacing to other components. Boresight gain variati
To satisfy the need for characterizing the aging process of infrared focal plane arrays (FPAs) in storage, tests were performed where FPAs were subjected to four different stress temperatures. A Weibull distribution which was fitted to the pixel failure data indicated a shape parameter of 0.97. An A
