More specifically, the opening of the upper surface of the case is closed by an infrared transmitting window and the infrared detecting means is used as the case. TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an improved technique of an infrared detector in which an opening on the lower side of the case is closed by a stem having a lead pin penetratingly incorporated therein and electrically connected to the infrared detecting means.

ース内に密封させている。In such an infrared detector, the infrared detecting means is connected to, for example, a substrate on which a resistor is formed, a PZT element connected in parallel with the resistor, and an output side of the PZT element. The infrared detecting means is hermetically sealed in the case because the sensitivity is lowered when the light receiving surface of the PZT element is insulation-degraded due to humidity.

Moisture-proof measures such as welding are taken.

に起因する感度低下を避け得ないものであった。However, if the infrared transmission window or the stem is not sufficiently sealed to the case, or if the hermetically sealed portion is damaged by some mechanical stress, the portion inside the case is defectively sealed. It was inevitable that moisture would infiltrate into the sensor and cause a decrease in sensitivity due to a decrease in insulation of the shunt resistance.

トルを符号aで示す。In the infrared detector having such a structure, the light receiving surface of the PZT element 11 is covered with a fluorine-based moisture-proof coating agent 12. More specifically, for example, a moisture-proof coating agent 12 manufactured by Asahi Glass Co., Ltd. under the trade name of EC-104 is held on the light-receiving surface of the PZT element 11 by means such as a brush or a spray. The infrared absorption spectrum of the coating agent 12 is indicated by the symbol a.

It exhibits a very high infrared absorptivity in the vicinity of ± 100 cm −1 . This property is a moisture-proof coating agent other than EC-104, such as EC-106, 120, 200, 300, 400 (all of which are Asahi Glass). The same applies to the product name of the stock company).

度が高められる。According to such a configuration, the infrared rays transmitted through the infrared transmission window 3 are effectively absorbed by the moisture-proof coating agent 12 and are propagated to the PZT element 11 in a state where reflection is suppressed. Thus, the sensitivity of infrared detection by the PZT element 11 is increased.

率が約5%以上アップすることが判明した。In FIG. 3, reference numeral b indicates an infrared absorption spectrum when the moisture-proof coating agent 12 is not retained on the light-receiving surface of the PZT element 11, and reference symbol c is the moisture-proof coating agent 12 retained on the light-receiving surface of the PZT element 11. The infrared absorption spectrum according to the experimental results is shown. By holding the moisture-proof coating agent 12 on the light receiving surface of the PZT element 11, the infrared absorption efficiency in the vicinity of 1200 ± 100 cm −1 is about 5%. It turned out that it improved above.

赤外線検出の感度低下を回避させることができる。On the other hand, even if the infrared transmission window 3 and the stem 4 are not properly sealed with respect to the case 1 or the lead pin 5 is poorly sealed with respect to the stem 4 due to mechanical stress or the like, the PZT element 11 receives fluorine on its light-receiving surface. Since the system moisture-proof coating agent 12 is held, it is possible to avoid a decrease in the sensitivity of infrared detection due to the intrusion of moisture into the case from the site of the defective seal.

達成される。In the embodiment, only the light-receiving surface of the PZT element 11 is coated with the fluorine-based moisture-proof coating agent 12. However, in order to surely avoid the adverse effect of moisture, as shown in FIG. The entire detection means 6 is a fluorine-based moisture-proof coating agent
It is desirable to coat with the moisture-proof coating agent 12. In this case, by coating the infrared detection means 6 with the fluorine-based moisture-proof coating agent 12, the moisture-proof coating agent 12 can be coated at low cost.

Moreover, since the moisture-proof coating agent for that purpose suppresses reflection and absorbs infrared rays effectively, the infrared detection sensitivity of the PZT element is greatly improved, and as a result, a highly reliable infrared detector can be provided.
