Abstract

A discussion is given of the principles of constructing an infrared transducer permitting the spatial resolution to be increased by using the whole IR-sensitive area of the receiving film, and the information signal to be picked off by two busbars, regardless of the number of signal-forming elementary receiving areas on the photosensitive surface, also permitting the elementary receivers to be interrogated in any required manner, and to form a superconducting channel of the configuration excluding the interrogation of defective elementary receivers.
