We are one of only a handful of companies in the world performing every aspect of top-to-bottom Thermal Imaging system component development and production, to the level of production of FPA detectors. Our Thermal Imaging activities are strongly supported by subsidiaries like SCD – Semi Conductor Devices, providing an in-house source of advanced infrared detectors. SCD manufactures cutting-edge technology cryogenically-cooled IR detectors for the two atmospheric spectral windows: higher resolution InSb FPA detectors for the MWIR (3-5 mm), MCT linear array and 2nd generation TDI detectors for the LWIR (8-12 mm).
Elop's technologies include:
§ LWIR 8-12 mm MCT detectors
§ MWIR 3-5 mm FPA InSb detectors up to 640 x 512 elements
§ Second generation 8-12 mm TDI detectors up to 480x6 elements
§ Miniature, high reliability, Stirling cycle coolers
§ Integral Detector-Dewar-Cooler (DDC) assemblies
§ Design and manufacturing of optical elements
§ Precision optical-mechanical mechanisms
§ Continuous IR zoom telescopes
§ Dual axis micro-scan
