A method is proposed for fabricating detector arrays of high temperature superconducting (HTSC) thin films directly on diamond substrates. Diamond is employed to exploit the potentially wide wavelength responsivity of these films through non-bolometric mechanisms. Lithographic techniques are described which will help compensate for the extreme thermophysical mismatch between diamond and these superconducting films.Wide wavelength response cameras, radiometric imaging, spectrophotometric dispersion simultaneous with spatial imaging, and new lithographic techniques for HTSC films.detection array, high temperature superconducting films, thin filmsSTATUS: Phase I Only
