This paper overviews the electro-optical and thermal performances of different types of infrared detectors manufactured by Sofradir. The detector's fabrication processes and detector's performance are shortly described. New staring arrays are more compact and offer system solutions required by infrared market. Special attention is directed to some reliability advantages of new dewar design. Finally, the development trends for highest resolution infrared detector are discussed.
