Mid-infrared light or mid-IR refers to electromagnetic waves having longer wavelengths than visible light, ranging from approximately 3 to 50 microns or micrometers. Mid-IR sensors are used in a variety of applications, such as thermal imaging, gas detection, flame detection and night vision. These sensors absorb mid-infrared light and convert it into an electrical signal that is proportional to the amount of light energy absorbed or emitted by the target. They are used in industries such as ... Read more
