Abstract
The designs of a warm (uncooled) aperture diaphragm in a gas-filled cryostat with a matrix photodetector sensitive in the infrared spectral range are studied numerically and experimentally. It is shown that for the chosen design of a warm aperture diaphragm, a $$384\times 288$$ pixel matrix photodetector is cooled by liquid nitrogen to operating temperatures (85 K) in less than 40 seconds, and by a throttle microcooler in 15 seconds, while maintaining the standard sensitivity of photodetectors based on cadmium–mercury–tellurium (CMT) structures.
