| 内容記述 | It is pointed out that the development of two-dimensional infrared focal plane arrays (FPAs) offers new alternatives in imaging and remote sensing. Attention is given to an imaging spectrometer which represents a new concept exploiting two-dimensional arrays. This instrument is to be used for the remote sensing of the earth on the basis of a utilization of reflected sunlight in both the visible (VIS) and short wavelength infrared (SWIR). The imaging spectrometer concept is to make it possible to obtain contiguous spectral coverage at high resolution without having to use increasingly complex scanners. The concept utilizes a prism spectrometer to disperse the image of the slit across the area arrays in the focal plane. The focal plane consists of silicon CCDs for the VIS and near infrared portions of the spectrum and HgCdTe hybrid arrays for the SWIR. |
