Abstract

A cryogenically cooled, silicon on sapphire, electrically calibrated bolometer has been designed and measured to have a noise equivalent power of 3 x 10^-11watt per root hertz. The electrical calibration of the bolometer has agreed with an electrically calibrated pyroelectric to better than 1 percent.
