PbS and PbSe Infrared Detectors
in Various Configurations
Handling Guidelines
LASER COMPONENTS has put together a set of instructions for taking care of PbS and PbSe detectors. This instruction manual goes several configurations including: flat plate, header mounted, with and without cap and window, packaged detectors, thermos-electric cooling, and system burn-in.
Sensitivity of these IR components is important to consider, thus storing them in a proper environment is crucial. This is due to damaged which can be accumulated through exposure to light, moisture, and heat.
Additional details such as, how to handle the detectors with equipment, cleaning procedures, and wiring of detectors for long term performance are also expanded within the document.
