Abstract

In this contribution, a focal plane array (FPA) at submillimeter wavelengths is presented for security applications. The detectors are based on kinetic inductance bolometers. Two frequency selective absorber (FSA) sets were designed to implement a security imager. The effective pattern of the imager coupled to a black body point source over a wide frequency band (1:6) was demonstrated experimentally with excellent agreement to the one estimated by using a Fourier optics based technique.
