摘要:An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for a frequency selectiveimager. In particular, the frequency selective imager includes an array of pixels arrangedin a focal plane array. Each pixel includes at least one nanoparticle-sized diameterthermoelectric junction that is formed between nanowires of different compositions.
When a nanoparticle-sized diameter thermoelectric junction senses a photon, the
nanoparticle-sized diameter thermoelectric junction emits an electrical pulse voltage thatis proportional to an energy level of the sensed photon. In one or more embodiments,the frequency selective imager is a frequency selective optical imager that is used tosense photons having optical frequencies. In at least one embodiment, at least one of thenanowires in the frequency selective imager is manufactured from a compound materialincluding Bismuth (Bi) and Tellurium (Te).
