本书系从四十年代至一九七三年的公开杂志中选择较有代表性的资料四十三篇编篡而成。编入时并对多数文章写了评语,还补入了新发表的文献资料。此书共分六大部分: 一、现有红外探测器特性系各类探测器性能水平的综合介绍。二、红外探测基础介绍探测和外差探测原理、响应率与探测度的计算以及各种噪声。三、光子探测器介绍铅盐类、InSb、HgCdTe、PbSnTe以及锗掺汞和掺铜 The book from the 1940s to 1973 in the selection of more than the representative of the public information compiled 43 articles. At the time of writing and commenting on the majority of articles, the newly published literature was also inserted. This book is divided into six major parts: First, the existing infrared detector characteristics of various types of detectors integrated performance level. Second, the basis of infrared detection Detection and heterodyne detection principle, response rate and detection of the calculation and a variety of noise. Third, the introduction of photon detectors Lead salts, InSb, HgCdTe, PbSnTe and germanium doped mercury and copper
