This project will develop the enabling technologies for next generation infrared sensors. Although infrared imaging was
historically developed for military applications, the biggest opportunities for growth are in commercial markets. Infrared
imaging is recognized as an important green technology because of its numerous applications in environmental
monitoring, thermography, process control, and inspection and maintenance of industrial equipment. Commercial vision
applications include surveillance, automotive and maritime safety, and fire?fighting. The proposed project represents an
important opportunity for Canada to contribute to these areas or growing importance. The main technical hurdles
addressed in this project include the development wafer?level vacuum packaging of microbolometers, low?temperature
3D?integration with electronics, cost?efficient deposition of high quality temperature sensitive thin film structures, and
optical efficiency. This project is in collaboration with Teledyne DALSA, developers of advanced imaging and semiconductor
technologies, with the Université de Sherbrooke and the École Polytechnique de Montréal.
