The uncooled lead selenide (PbSe) sensor belongs to the lead - salt type infrared photoconductive sensor category. Its operation principle is grounded in the photoconductive effect of semiconductor materials. This allows it to convert infrared radiation energy into electrical signals. The PbSe sensor demonstrates robust absorption and response within the near and mid - infrared (1.0 - 5.0μm) spectral bands. It finds extensive application in infrared gas detection, flame detection, and high - temperature detection scenarios.
