| Uncooled micromolometer camera for IR and THz high-speed imaging has been developed. The 160x120 focal plane array consists of resistive vanadium oxide elements on a silicon nitride bridge. The element size is 48x48 micron at 51 micron array period. We describe device fabrication process and focal plane array operational characteristics. The camera was used as a recorder in quasi-optical systems with Novosibirsk terahertz free electron laser as a radiation source. Radioscopy of the objects, which are of interest for biology and security applications, has been demonstrated. The recording rate up to 90 frames per second has been obtained. |
