A thermopile detector for a temperature measuring instrument physically and electrically configured to supply an output signal which indicates a target temperature substantially independent of the influence of ambient temperature changes. The detector is comprised of a plurality of interleaved and electrically opposing thermocouples on a common surface of a substrate wherein the interleaved thermocouples are comprised of active thermocouples having a high emissivity coating to increase their sensitivity to infrared radiation and blind compensating thermocouples having a low emissivity coating to minimize their sensitivity to infrared radiation.
