Using the principle of infrared radiant thermal effect, the uncooled infrared detector converts infrared radiation energy into heat energy with infrared absorption material, increasing the temperature of the sensitive material. This causes corresponding changes in physical parameters of the sensitive material, which are converted into electrical signals or visible light signals through designed conversion mechanisms to enable object detection.
Uncooled infrared focal plane detectors do not require an Integrated Dewar Cooler Assembly (IDCA) device and can operate at room temperature. They offer advantages including fast start-up, low power consumption, small size, light weight, long lifespan, and low cost. While sensitivity may not match cooled infrared detectors, years of development have made uncooled detectors more cost-effective with broader application prospects.
