Abstract:

The objective of the program was to design, fabricate, test, and delivery ten single element Mercury Cadmium Telluride HgCdTe detectors encapsulated in glass evacuated dewars. These units were to demonstrate high performance and high reliability operation at 77K in the 8 to 14 micrometer spectral region, and have a low heat load dissipation. The detectors and dewars were also to have characteristics for high temperature storage and vacuum integrity.
