  • Multiband infrared imaging device
    Patent number: 7906763
    Abstract: A multiband infrared imaging intensifier device which includes an infrared radiation transmitting lens, for transmitting infrared radiation from an object scene onto a quantum ferroelectric copolymer detector with a chopper between them, with the detector responsive to the infrared detection to generate signal electrons which are pulled off and accelerated by an electric field onto a phosphor surface which produces photons to provide an image.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 4, 2008
    Date of Patent: March 15, 2011
    Inventors: Arthur H. Mengel, David R. Flanders
