Abstract
A detector includes a plurality of detector elements in a linear array. A bias source is connected to the input terminal of each detector element. The bias source includes a first bias connected to the input terminals of a first set of detector elements including alternating detector elements and is also connected through an associated measurement device to the output terminals of a second set of detector elements including the remaining detector elements. The bias source also includes a second bias, different from the first bias, and connected through an associated measurement device to the output terminals of the first set of detector elements. The second bias is also connected to the input terminals of the second set of detector elements.
