COMPACT PYROSENSORS

Note: material of the window and size of sensor canbe customized on request (Ge, ZnSe, quartz, BaF₂, CaF₂,KPS-5).

Irradiation of theplate increases its temperature and reduces spontaneous polarization.Variations of the plate temperature, caused by absorption of the radiation,manifest itself in the form of variations of the capacitance charge, which canbe measured.

Sensor element ofthe MPV device is fabricated in the form of a plane plate made of apyroelectric material. Electrodes are deposited in vacuum on both sides ofthe plate.

MPV device isintended for detection of thermal radiation in the spectral range 0.5...45 mmand can be used in a variety of optical instruments: spectrometers (especiallyin the Fourier spectrometers), radiometers, IR thermometers, spacespectroradiometers, gas analysers, pyrometric safe-guard systems.
