Abstract: There has been significant advancement in photonic infrared (IR) detector technology in the past decade. In this tutorial, I will cover the basics of photonic IR detectors including the ...

This infrared detector circuit uses a passive IR-detector component PID20. It converts heat radiation into electrical impulses. The output voltage of the PID20 increases when an object comes close to ...

This infrared detector can be used to detect the presence of modulated infrared signals in its vicinity from any electronic source, for instance, an IR handheld remote controller. It can also be used ...

Abstract: Specific Infrared (IR) detection systems are a solution for non-invasive monitoring of polymer aging in electrical power plants. For such application, the target photo-detector has a low ...
