Near-infrared imaging sensor

摘要

A near-infrared imaging sensor according to the present invention includes a photodiode array sensitive to light with a wavelength of 1.2 to 3 μm and a multiplexer including a signal readout circuit. The near-infrared imaging sensor is contained in a housing and is vacuum-sealed. The housing includes a main body section and a lid covering the main body section. The lid is made of a material transparent to light with a wavelength of 1.2 to 3 μm.
