Abstract

For future space science and earth observation missions, there is a need for an image sensor with high quantum efficiency over a wide band, from visible to near infrared. A 1Megapixel, BSI hybrid image sensor comprising a detector and a CMOS readout integrated circuit (ROIC) is presented. The detector is fabricated with a thicker, back-side illuminated silicon die for improved QE in a wide band, and initial test results of the detector and ROIC are provided.
