Abstract
A multiple color infrared detector is provided which is formed from a photodiode (13), a photoconductor (24), and an insulating layer of material (20) disposed between the photodiode (13) and the photoconductor (24). The photodiode (13) detects infrared radiation in the spectral band between about 3 .mu.m and about 5 .mu.m, and the photoconductor (24) detects infrared radiation in the spectral band between about 8 .mu.m and about 13 .mu.m.
