At Santa Barbara Focalplane (SBF), Lockheed Martin’s infrared (IR) center of excellence, seeing is believing.?SBF develops and manufactures focal plane arrays (FPAs) that deliver high-resolution imagery in real-time, integrated dewar cooler assemblies for high-performance sensors, and camera cores that offer big-sensor performance in compact and low-SWAP configurations.

SBF offers a diverse selection of off-the-shelf and custom-built FPAs. Our revolutionary nBn FPA and high-speed digital read-out integrated circuit (ROIC) technologies are the foundation of our advanced sensor offerings.

Our proprietary nBn material enables FPAs to run “warmer” than traditional indium antimonide (InSb) solutions, delivering high performance in small packages—and improved product life and reliability. nBn is tunable from short to long wavelengths.
