An uncooled thermal infrared detector is a device that can detect infrared radiation emitted by objects in the long-wave infrared range (8-14 ?m) without the need for active cooling. It consists of a microbolometer, which is a temperature-sensitive resistor that changes its electrical resistance according to the amount of absorbed infrared radiation, and a readout circuit that converts the resistance change into a video signal. Uncooled thermal infrared detectors are widely used in applications such as thermography, security, firefighting, and automotive.


The industry trend of uncooled thermal infrared detectors is expected to be positive and dynamic in the coming years. Some of the factors that are driving the market growth are:


The increasing demand for infrared detectors in various applications, such as thermography, security, firefighting, and automotive. Infrared detectors can provide enhanced visibility and detection in low-light or dark environments, as well as measure temperature and heat distribution of objects and surfaces.


The growing popularity of uncooled infrared detectors, which offer advantages such as lower cost, smaller size, lower power consumption, and higher reliability compared to cooled infrared detectors. Uncooled infrared detectors do not require active cooling systems, which reduces the complexity and maintenance of the devices.


The technological advancements and innovations in the field of uncooled infrared detectors, such as the development of high-purity semiconducting carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as a new material for infrared detection. CNTs have high sensitivity and resolution, as well as excellent thermal and electrical properties. NEC Corporation has announced the development of the worlds first high-sensitivity uncooled infrared image sensor using CNTs, which is expected to have practical applications by 2025.
