Abstract
Provided is a focal plane array that includes an array of photodetectors, with each photodetector being in electrical communication with a corresponding one of an electrode of a read out integrated circuit. The array of photodetectors include an insulating layer, a blocking layer comprising at least one blind via, and an active layer formed between the insulating layer and the blocking layer. A first portion of the blocking layer transmits radiation having a first wavelength and reflects radiation having second wavelength that is lower than that of the first wavelength. A diameter of the at least one blind via is selected to allow radiation of the second wavelength to pass through the at least one blind via.
