Dexter Research Center, Inc.
Since 1977, Dexter Research has been the preferred provider of infrared thermopile detectors for science and industry. Today we offer the world's largest selection of thermopile-based solutions including high-quality, high-output Bismuth-Antimony thin film and silicon-based infrared-sensing thermopile detectors. We offer standard detectors in high volumes. We also customize detectors for specific needs. Integrated modules serve as complete sensing subsystems.

Security/Detection
If your design challenge is to create the best motion sensor or motion detector - fire sensor or fire detector, smoke sensor or smoke detector - you've come to the right company. Dexter's sensor technologies are at multiple fronts today, reducing the threat of combat on land, sea and air. Yet the industry leading advantages of Dexter sensors - low cost, high sensitivity, low energy consumption and long life - make them the perfect motion sensor for home, office and facility applications. Dexter thin-film and silicon detectors can target precise threats, whether defined by movement, temperature or body mass. Intensive MIL-STD-883H testing performed by Trialon Corporation, an independent testing facility, confirm that Dexter Research's silicon-based temperature sensor detectors meet the same rugged requirements of 1,000G's for mechanical shock and 30G's in random vibration for which our thin-film detectors are famous.

1SC Compensated
A thin film-based single channel thermopile detector that offers thermal compensation to minimize effects of sudden ambient temperature change during the initial five seconds of change. The 1SC Compensated comes in a TO-5 package with a medium sized 1.0 x 1.0mm active area. Compensation is achieved through the integration of two additional half-sized thermopile elements. Internal aperture is standard and precisely defines active area for applications with FOV and/or spot size requirements.
