前言近十年来红外系统的应用突飞猛进,其应用包括了军事和工业实时热成象装置,近红外和远红外空间监视系统,红外通讯系统和污染监控装置。红外波段的扩大应用要求发展不同波段的高质量探测器。本征光子探测器是可供系统设计者灵活使用的一种主要的探测器。本报告将讨论本征光子探测器(光导和光伏)的基本工作原理,并指出影响它的性能的因素,特别强调对“典型”探测很重要 Foreword The application of infrared systems has advanced by leaps and bounds over the past decade. Applications include military and industrial real-time thermal imaging devices, near-infrared and far-infrared space surveillance systems, infrared communications systems, and pollution monitoring devices. The expansion of the infrared band requires the development of high-quality detectors of different bands. The intrinsic photon detector is a major detector that is flexible for use by system designers. This report will discuss the basic working principles of intrinsic photon detectors (photoconductors and photovoltaics) and point out the factors that affect their performance, with particular emphasis on “typical” detection
