Mechanically stacked multicolor focal plane arrays and detection devices

Abstract

Multicolor, stacked detector devices, focal plane arrays including multicolor, stacked detector devices, and methods of fabricating the same are disclosed. In one embodiment, a stacked multicolor detector device includes a first detector and a second detector. The first detector includes a first detector structure and a first ground plane adjacent the first detector structure. The second detector includes a second detector structure and a second ground plane adjacent the second detector structure. At least one of the first ground plane and the second ground plane is transmissive to radiation in a predetermined spectral band. The first detector and the second detector are in a stacked relationship.
