A room temperature PbS/PbSe photoconductive detector for the mid-infrared wavelength region.

The grant aims to develop a room temperature photoconductive detector for the mid-infrared (2 to 4.5 µm) wavelength range using lead salt materials. This detector should help in detecting chemical and biological agents through infrared absorption spectroscopy. Current infrared spectrometers are large, expensive, and not easily deployable in the field. Lead sulfide (PbS) and lead selenide (PbSe…
