Infrared Detector Characteristics: Measurement and use,

Abstract

Infrared photodetectors having electrical outputs directly proportional to the radiant signal power input can be described in terms of specific and well-defined parameters. These parameters and the associated measurement techniques are briefly outlined. Methods are suggested for extrapolating and interpolating from standard report data in order to prepare specific engineering information about expected operational detector performance.
