Abstract

Issues concerning IR system design that drive Z-plane technology development are discussed. Key characteristics of IR phenomenology are briefly addressed, followed by a discussion of critical IR focal plane array performance parameters as they relate to sensor design tradeoff issues. Possible future directions for radical approaches to Z-plane IR focal plane arrays are suggested.
