Abstract
Sensors Unlimited Inc. (SUI), a Raytheon Technologies Company, has long been the vanguard of low-noise InGaAs/InP PiN back-side illuminated (BSI) planar-type photodiode technology. In addition to focusing on dark current reduction efforts, SUI has also initiated other photodiode detector array (PDA) improvement efforts to better serve its broad portfolio of sensor technology. In previous years, SUI has presented results related to mesa-structure PDAs for modulation transfer function (MTF) improvement and hybridization capacitance reduction for NEI improvement. An update to these technologies is offered. Additionally, SUI has more recently engaged in more advanced PDA development to better satisfy active imaging applications. Results of these efforts are also presented.
