✦ Synopsis

Completely revised and reorganized while retaining the approachable style of its predecessor, this second edition addresses the latest developments in the science and technology of IR detection. This edition discusses the fundamentals of IR detection, radiometry, and flux-transfer issues needed for IR detector and system analysis as well as major achievements and trends in the development of IR detectors. It covers novel uncooled detectors, such as cantilever, antenna, and optically coupled detectors type II superlattice detectors quantum dot IR detectors and THz arrays and third-generation detectors.
