Recently, a lot of attention has been paid to infrared imaging using uncooled microbolometer detectors, primarily because of their low cost, and wide military and civilian applications. This paper reviews the basic principles of these detectors and some of the important works done internationally in this field. This paper presents some of the research work on titanium microbolometer carried out at Solid State Physics Laboratory, Delhi.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
