SensorMicro was founded with a simple but powerful belief: Innovation should serve real-world needs.

SensorMicro exists to empower people and systems to see beyond the surface—into the patterns, the problems, and the possibilities that lie beneath.

By turning invisible heat into visible truth, we help industries make smarter decisions, protect what matters most, and navigate complexity with clarity.

Heeding to our insistence on being self-made and customer-first has become a sure recipe for SensorMicro's momentum. As our business spans much of the globe, we've charged ahead on all fronts—from security, firefighting, industrial inspection, medical care, and machine vision, to environmental monitoring and key aspects of carbon neutrality—helping partners unlock the full potential of intelligent infrared sensing, and connecting the dots of life.

We are more than an infrared technology company. We are a community of people committed to building a sustainable, ethical, and human-centered future. Every pixel of innovation we create is a promise — a promise to protect, to empower, and to serve.

1. What is MCT/HgCdTe detector?
MCT, also called HgCdTe, refers to Mercury-Cadmium-Telluride which is a chemical compound of cadmium telluride (CdTe) and mercury telluride (HgTe) and a common material in photodetectors. MCT/HgCdTe detector is a photoconductive detector that operates at a cryogenic environment and can detect infrared radiation. It is more sensitive than thermal sensors.

2. What is T2SL detector?
T2SL refers to Type-II Superlattice, which is an artificial material with alternating growth periodic heterojunction at nanometer size. It has high uniformity and superior optical property, such as large electron effective mass, large absorption coefficient and high quantum efficiency. Compared with MCT infrared detector, the T2SL infrared detector has good material uniformity, low cost, and similar performance to MCT infrared detector in medium and long wave band, but has great advantages in very long wave band.
