Abstract
This paper reviews recent advances in photovoltaic (PV) HgCdTe infrared detector technology. Recent advances have enabled a new generation of spaceborne multispectral instruments for remote sensing applications, and have led to the practicality of dual-band (or two-color) IR focal plane array technology. The focus of this paper is on the back-illuminated HgCdTe PV arrays that have made this new generation of spaceborne instruments possible.
