THERMAL DETECTOR

A device for detecting infrared radiation is described that comprises a resonator element ( 36; 72; 96; 120 ) fixably attached to a supporting frame ( 32;130 ). The supporting frame ( 32;130 ) is arranged to absorb infrared radiation received by the device. The resonator element ( 36; 72; 96; 120 )...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A device for detecting infrared radiation is described that comprises a resonator element ( 36; 72; 96; 120 ) fixably attached to a supporting frame ( 32;130 ). The supporting frame ( 32;130 ) is arranged to absorb infrared radiation received by the device. The resonator element ( 36; 72; 96; 120 ) has a resonant property, such as resonant frequency, that varies with temperature. The device may comprise a plurality of detection elements ( 70 ), each detection element comprising a resonator element ( 72 ) fixably attached to a supporting frame. A thermal detector array device may also be provided.
