Teledyne Imaging has a reputation for producing the highest performance Focal Plane Arrays (FPAs) using Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) technology to grow HgCdTe (also known as Mercury Cadmium Telluride or MCT) detector substrates.

With the unique material properties of MCT to tune the detector to specific wavelengths and decades of experience in optimising, packaging and hybridizing infrared sensors Teledyne is supplying major ESA and NASA space science and astronomy missions. Teledyne’s IR FPA’s are to be used in prestigious missions such as the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and Euclid and are currently flying on the Hubble Telescope and the Wide-field Infrared Survey Telescope (WISE).
