Modern designs of time delay and integration (TDI) IR linear scanning focal plane arrays (IR FPAs) are analyzed. Advanced designs of linear IR FPAs with increased sensitivity and spatial resolution are proposed. The analysis is based on Monte-Carlo simulation of the diffusion of photogenerated charge carriers in photodiode arrays based on mercury–cadmium–telluride epitaxial layers taking into account the main photoelectric and design parameters of the detectors and optical system.
