Pyroelectric Detectors
-
Pyroelectric detectors are thermal detectors; i.e. they create an electric signal due to temperature changes in the chip. This temperature change is caused by absorption of light. We do use LiTaO3 and DLaTGS as pyroelectric materials. Basically such detectors cover the whole spectra. However, they are mainly used for mid-wave and long-wave infrared detection (MWIR and LWIR). In addition, the usage in the THz region seems to become more popular these days.

Sensors
-
To measure machinery or structural vibration, a transducer is needed to convert the mechanical motion into an equivalent electrical signal. Each sensor has distinct advantages in certain situations and limitations in other, so it is important to select the most suited transducer or sensor for your job. Equally, important is selecting the appropriate parameter of vibration amplitude for measurement. IRD® has a wide range of transducers and accelerometers available to help you obtain accurate, reliable data, whether your concern is vibration monitoring, analysis, or dynamic balancing.

Magnetic Sensors
-
Magnetic proximity sensors are characterized by the possibility of large switching distances, available from sensors with small dimensions. They detect magnetic objects (usually permanent magnets), which are used to trigger the switching process. As the magnetic fields are able to pass through many non-magnetic materials, the switching process can also be triggered without the need for direct exposure to the target object. By using magnetic conductors (e.g., iron), the magnetic field can be transmitted over greater distances so that, for example, the signal can be carried away from high temperature areas.
