Summary

THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A16-CHANNEL, LOW-TEMPERATURE BOLOMETER LINEAR DETECTOR ARRAY IS DESCRIBED. THE DETECTORS ARE SILICON SAMPLES, WHOSE SURFACES ARE DOPED WITH PHOSPHORUS BY THE TECHNIQUE OF IONIC IMPLANTATION. A SINGLE DIGITAL PROCESSOR IMPLEMENTED ON A COMMON PC BOTH PROVIDES THE SCANNING OF THE ARRAY AND PERFORMS SYNCHRONOUS SIGNAL DETECTION FROM THE DIFFERENT BOLOMETERS. THE ACTUAL SYSTEM HAS BEEN TESTED WITH A BROAD INFRARED SOURCE, AND SOME POSSIBLE IMPROVEMENTS ARE INDICATED.
