Chapter 1 Infrared DetectorCharacterizationOver the past several hundreds of years, optical systems (telescopes, microscopes,eyeglasses, cameras, etc.) have formed their optical image on the humanretina, photographic plate, or film. The birth of photodetectors dates back to1873 when Smith discovered photoconductivity in selenium. Progress wasslow until 1905, when Einstein explained the newly observed photoelectriceffect in metals, and Planck solved the blackbody emission puzzle byintroducing the quantum hypothesis. Applications and new devices soonflourished, pushed by the dawning technology of vacuum tube sensorsdeveloped in the 1920s and 1930s, culminating in the advent of and Morton, the celebrated fathers of videonics, on the last page oftheir legendary bookTelevision(1939) concluded that: when rockets will flyto the moon and to
