Lenses for the 8 to 14 µm band

Thermal imaging in the long-wave infrared uses wavelengths of roughly 8 to 14 µm, which optical glass does not transmit, so these lenses are made from infrared materials. Uncooled detectors need a lot of energy, which is why thermal lenses have low F-numbers, and the lens is matched to the detector by its pixel pitch and pixel count.

  • Calculate the detector size from pixel count and pixel pitch and compare it with the format the lens covers.
  • Choose the focal length from the field of view; compare the F-number, since a lower one gives the detector more signal.
  • Check the mount thread and the back focal length against the camera core, and whether the model is fixed focus, manual focus or athermalised.
