LONG-WAVE INFRARED SENSOR AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17737183 titled 'LONG-WAVE INFRARED SENSOR AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for a long-wave infrared (LWIR) sensor that includes a substrate, a magnetic resistance device, and an LWIR absorption layer. The magnetic resistance device's resistance changes with temperature, while the LWIR absorption layer absorbs LWIR rays and generates heat.

  • The sensor includes a substrate, magnetic resistance device, and LWIR absorption layer.
  • The magnetic resistance device's resistance changes based on temperature.
  • The LWIR absorption layer is designed to absorb LWIR rays and produce heat.

Potential Applications

  • Thermal imaging cameras
  • Night vision devices
  • Temperature monitoring systems
  • Heat detection in industrial processes

Problems Solved

  • Provides a reliable and accurate method for detecting LWIR rays.
  • Enables the conversion of LWIR rays into heat for various applications.
  • Offers a compact and efficient solution for LWIR sensing.

Benefits

  • Improved sensitivity and accuracy in LWIR detection.
  • Compact and lightweight design for easy integration into various devices.
  • Efficient conversion of LWIR rays into heat for energy-saving applications.


Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is a long-wave infrared (LWIR) sensor including a substrate, a magnetic resistance device on the substrate, and an LWIR absorption layer on the magnetic resistance device, wherein a resistance of the magnetic resistance device changes based on temperature, and wherein the LWIR absorption layer is configured to absorb LWIR rays and generate heat.
