ている。[Prior Art] Conventionally, in order to increase the sensitivity of a detection element that detects radiant energy, a method of cooling the element has been used.

一定としている。 For example, as shown in FIG. 4, a detection element 1 is provided on the cooling surface of an electronic cooling element 2 such as a Peltier element on a base 3 and sealed in the same package, and a temperature detection element 4 such as a thermistor is further mounted on the cooling surface of an electronic cooling element 2 such as a Peltier element. The temperature of the cooling surface is measured, and the electronic cooling element 2 is controlled so that its output et matches the set value es, thereby keeping the temperature of the detection element 1 constant.
[この発明が解決しようとする課題]

がある。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Although it is desirable to provide the temperature detection element 4 near the detection element 1 on the cooling surface of the electronic cooling element 2, it is susceptible to the influence of incident light and tends to cause errors. Providing this means for removing light would complicate the device. Therefore, normally a temperature detection element 4 is provided on the side surface of the electronic cooling element 2 as shown in FIG.
There is a temperature difference with the temperature of the detection element 1, and there is a problem that, especially when the ambient temperature changes, it cannot catch up and the error becomes large.

させ、検出素子1の温度を一定とする。 In the figure, the chopped intermittent light from the chopper 6 enters the detection element 1 made of PbS, PbSe, etc.
Detection element 1 of this resistance Ri and load resistance 1 of resistance Pb
0 are connected in series to form a half bridge with ±Vb power supplies, and the voltage Va at the midpoint is the operational amplifier A 1
The signal is input to a buffer circuit 7 using an impedance converter. The DC output of the buffer circuit 7 shown in FIG. The temperature of the detection element 1 is kept constant by matching the value es.

精度化が図れる。 In other words, as shown in FIG. 3B, the detection element 1
has a dark resistance of about several MΩ even when no light comes, and this changes depending on the temperature T. When light comes, it changes as shown in Figure 3 A 1 , A 2 , etc. depending on its size. Since the amount of change is about several ohms and is small compared to the dark resistance, the control means 5 controls the electronic cooling element 2 by the DC output of the buffer circuit 7 shown in FIG. death,
The amount of change is obtained as an alternating current output as shown in FIG. Furthermore, by extracting a signal synchronized with the chopper and extracting a DC signal proportional to the dark resistance, errors caused by the incident light can be eliminated and higher precision can be achieved.

Since the temperature of the detection element is kept constant, there is no need to provide a special temperature detection element, and the temperature of the detection element can be controlled stably with high precision.
