Abstract

This paper describes a linear IRCCD focal plane consisting of a row of infrared sensing Schottky barrier photodiodes. These diodes directly "stare" at the infrared scene and staretime is automatically controlled by electronic circuitry without the need of shuttering or aperturing to obtain operation over the entire dynamic range regardless of the environment.
