Abstract:
A temperature sensor is incorporated within a housing having a silicon window through which infra-red radiation can enter. Mounted on a support structure is a semiconductor fabrication consisting of a reference junction and a sensing junction, covered with a black absorber. The reference junction is responsive to the temperature of the housing, whereas the sensing junction is responsive to the temperature of the housing and also the temperature of a remote zone from which infra-red radiation can enter the housing via the window. A Peltier heater/cooler controls the temperature of the housing, which temperature is monitored by a sensor to provide a measure of that of the remote zone.

Abstract:
An infrared imaging device includes an imaging element including a plurality of infrared detection pixels which are two-dimensionally arranged, a diaphragm, and a FPN calculation unit which acquires a first captured image data obtained by capturing an image using the imaging element in a state in which an F-number of the diaphragm is set to a first value and a second captured image data obtained by capturing an image using the imaging element in a state in which the F-number is set to a second value while a motion picture is being captured, and calculates fixed pattern noise included in captured image data obtained by capturing an image using the imaging element based on the acquired first captured image data, the acquired second captured image data, the first value, and the second value.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an apparatus and method of detecting a temperature through a pyrometer in a non-contact manner, and an apparatus for processing a substrate using the apparatus, and more particularly, an apparatus and method of detecting a temperature, which precisely measures a temperature without any effect by humidity, and an apparatus for processing a substrate using the same. In an exemplary embodiment, an apparatus for detecting a temperature includes a humidity sensor configured to measure a humidity value, a temperature compensation database configured to store a temperature compensation value for each humidity value, and a pyrometer providing a non-contact temperature calculated by adding a temperature compensation value corresponding to a humidity value detected by the humidity sensor to a temperature to be compensated, which is obtained by converting a measured a wavelength intensity of a radiation radiated from an object in a wavelength band to be compensated.
Abstract:
In some embodiments, apparatus and systems, as well as methods, may operate to receive radiation at an active detector of a pair of radiation detectors to provide a first signal proportional to an intensity of the radiation, to receive none of the radiation at a blind detector of the pair of radiation detectors to provide a second signal proportional to the reception of no radiation, and to combine the first signal and the second signal to provide an output signal representing the difference between the first signal and the second signal. The pair of radiation detectors may comprise thermopile detectors. Combination may occur via differential amplification. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.
