Raytheon Vision Systems (RVS) arrays are being deployed world-wide in ground based and space based platforms.
RVS has a family of high performance visible through far infrared detector arrays for astronomy and civil space
applications. Unique and off-the-shelf product lines are readily available to the community. Large sensor chip
assemblies using various detector materials like Si PIN, HgCdTe, InSb, and Si:As IBC, covering a detection range from
visible (400nm) to mid-wave infrared (28μm, MWIR) have been demonstrated with excellent quantum efficiency, dark
current, and uniformity. These focal plane arrays have been designed using state-of-the-art low noise, low power, and
radiation hardened readout integrated circuits. Complete with optical filters, opto-mechanical packaging, active thermal
cooling with matching thermal straps, and optional electronics, RVS provides complete solutions for a multitude of
sensor types and mission objectives. This paper describes the recent developments of focal plane assemblies for
upcoming missions and telescope platforms.
