Abstract:Abstract.A non-linear numerical finite element method (FEM) model of a thermo-electric focal plane array (FPA) detector is presented here. Laser induced thermo-voltage profiles tend to spread out for small lock-in frequencies as the thermal diffusion length is inversely proportional to the square-root of the lock-in frequency. This leads to a frequency and spatial dependent thermal cross-talk level. In this paper we investigate the thermal cross-talk level quantitatively in function of spatial coordinates and … Show more
