The present study is about the mid- and long-wave infrared imaging systems in which radiometry-based range prediction are performed. In this study, radiometry-based de- tection, recognition and identification range prediction equation is derived by using an optical design, optomechanical and optoelectronic structure for particular targets, atmospheric conditions, and backgrounds. Analysis of the atmospheric transmittance value for four different atmospheric conditions at mid- and long-wave is performed in detail with help of MODTRANTM 5 software. Detection, recognition and identifica- tion range for land, sea, and air targets is obtained using Johnson criteria. In view of different target types, the effect of the target area on range is examined. Furthermore, the effect of optical aspects of infrared optical systems -aperture and transmittance- and atmospheric conditions on range prediction performance is examined and dis- cussed for both mid- and long-wave bands in this thesis. This study is designed to provide useful information for forthcoming infrared imaging system designers significantly in their designs targeting infrared search and tracking.

Development and characterization of low-cost uncooled infrared sensors for commercial applications
Tankut, Firat; Akın, Tayfun; Eminoğlu, Selim; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2013)
This thesis reports the study on the development and characterization of low-cost uncooled microbolometer type infrared detectors, which are fabricated using standard CMOS and MEMS processes. Characterization of the detectors is the first step of developing infrared sensors with better performance. The characterized pixel has a 70 μm pitch and includes 4 serially connected diodes as the detector circuit. Thermal conductance (Gth), temperature sensitivity (TC) and, optical absorption are measured in scope of...
High performance focal plane array technologies from short to long wavelength infrared bands
Arslan, Yetkin; Beşikci, Cengiz; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2014)
This thesis work covers the development of three different state of the art infrared sensor technologies: quantum well infrared photodetectors (QWIPs), HgCdTe sensors and extended InGaAs photodetectors. QWIP is the leading member of the quantum structure infrared photodetector family providing excellent uniformity and stability with field proven performance. The utilization of the InP/In0.48Ga0.52As multi-quantum well structure (instead of the standard AlGaAs/GaAs material system) for the implementation of ...
Absorbance Estimation and Gas Emissions Detection in Hyperspectral Imagery
Başkurt, Nur Didem; Gur, Yusuf; Omruuzun, Fatih; Çetin, Yasemin (2016-05-19)
Hyperspectral imaging in gas detection applications is a leading and widely studied research topic thanks to its high spectral resolution and remote detection ability. The main problems in these applications covers the leakage detection, gas identification, and quantification. The proposed algorithm aims to reach the transmittance and absorbance features of the gas and to detect the gaseous region by using the measured radiance data from the hyperspectral infrared sensors.
Frequency Selective Characteristics of a Plasma Layer with Sinusoidally Varying Electron Density Profile
GÜREL, ÇİĞDEM SEÇKİN; Oencue, Emrah (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2009-06-01)
In this study reflection, absorbtion and transmission characteristics of a plasma layer having sinusoidally varying electron number density are analysed. In the analysis, plasma layer is divided into thin subslabs with constant electron number densities. The general frequency selective behavior of the plasma is investigated by varying the plasma parameters, external magnetic field excitation and sinusoidal electron distribution in order to be used in recent plasma applications.
Metamaterial based wideband infrared absorbers
Üstün, Kadir; Sayan, Gönül; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2017)
In this thesis, design and simulation of wideband metamaterial absorbers are investigated in the long wave infrared (LWIR) and the mid-wave infrared (MWIR) bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. Use of LWIR and MWIR bands in absorber design is especially important for critical applications including the design of thermal cameras and thermal emitters. Integration of metamaterial topologies into the absorber structures provides flexibilities in design to enhance the operation efficiency of these devices by in...
