Key Details
Official Description
The Department of War has a rapidly increasing demand for large-format, small-pixel FPAs to support advanced sensor platforms across Ground, air, maritime, and space domains. To keep pace with ongoing advancements in C-MOS digital-in-pixel Read-Out Integrated Circuits (ROICs) and to produce next-generation infrared sensors, fabrication processes must consistently yield exceptionally high-quality detector arrays. This demand is particularly relevant for high-performance materials such as Antimony...
