중적외선을 이용하여 획득한 영상은 상온 부근의 온도 측정에는 적당하지 않다는 것이 교과서적 상식이었으나, 최근 중적외선 센서를 이용한 위성 영상을 살펴보면 중적외선 센서를 이용하여 측정한 결과물도 상온 부근의 온도를 측정할 수 있다는 가능성을 보여주고 있다. 본 논문에서는 중적외선 센서를 가지는 위성영상의 상온 온도 정보 추출 가능성 및 정확도에 대해 살펴보고자 한다. 논문에서 검토된 중적외선 위성영상은 상온 부분의 온도를 잘 표시하였으며, 측정된 온도의 절대값으로서의 신뢰성에 관해서는, 태양광의 지표면 직접 반사에 의한 열전달량 영향과 대기에서 흡수되는 적외선 대기 흡수량의 영향은 비교적 작거나 일정한 값으로 볼 수 있지만, 비접촉식 온도계의 한계인 물성치의 의한 복사 계수(emissivity)의 불확실성 문제는 여전히 해결해야할 문제로 남아 있게 되었다.

원격탐사 센서가 사용하는 파장 영역 중 중적외선 파장 영역대는 국토, 환경, 재해, 군사 등의 폭넓은 분야에서 넓은 응용성을 가진다. 그러나, 중적외선 영역대의 독특한 특성으로 인하여 관련된 기술개발이 크게 발달하지 못한 측면이 있다. 최근 들어 중적외선 원격탐사 기술의 발전은 새로운 연구분야를 제시하고 있으며, 국내외 적으로 다양한 연구 결과가 보고되고 있다. 본 연구는 최근까지 개발된 중적외선 원격탐사 기술에 대한 연구 결과에 대한 문헌 기록을 분석하여 관련 기술의 현황 및 주요 연구 결과를 체계적으로 정립하여 중적외선 원격탐사 기술의 현황 및 연구동향을 제시하였다.

Mid-infrared optical sensors have a number of compelling advantages for remote sensing and the simultaneous measurement of mixtures. However, they still have difficulties in accurate detection owing to signal interferences among a large number of molecular fingerprints in the mid-infrared band, which result in very slow commercialization. Higher sensitivity and higher selectivity are required to overcome this obstruction in measurement technology. In this paper, we review and analyze the trends of mid-infrared sensor technologies enhancing the sensitivity and selectivity.

Infrared transparent ZnS ceramics were synthesized through hydrothermal synthesis ($180^{\circ}C$, 70 h) and sintered using a hot press process at $750^{\circ}C-1000^{\circ}C$. We carried out x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy to confirm the optical properties of the ZnS ceramics after sintering at various temperatures. The phase of ZnS nanopowders was a single phase (cubic) without the hexagonal phase. However, as sintering temperature increased, the formation and increment of hexagonal structures was confirmed. The ZnS ceramic sintered at a temperature of $750^{\circ}C$ showed poor transmittance because it was not completely sintered and because of the pore effect. The ZnS ceramic with the highest transmittance (approximately 69%) was sintered at $800^{\circ}C$. As sintering temperature increased, transmittance gradually decreased owing to the increase in the formation of the hexagonal phase.

In this study, a heat treatment process was applied to ZnS nano-powder to improve the optical properties of ZnS ceramic, and the characteristics of heat treatment time were studied. The ZnS nano-powders were synthesized by hydrothermal synthesis. The heat treatment was carried out at $550^{\circ}C$ for 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 hours in a vacuum atmosphere ($10^{-2}torr$). X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope analyzes confirmed the change of crystal phase and grain size to confirm the structural change with heat treatment time. The heat treated ZnS nano-powder was sintered by hot pressing, and the change of optical properties of the ZnS ceramic was analyzed by infrared spectroscopy.

In this study, mid-infrared transparent zinc sulfide (ZnS) ceramics were fabricated through hydrothermal synthesis with different molar ratios of S/Zn (S/Zn = 0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, and 1.6). The ZnS ceramics were sintered at a relatively low temperature of $850^{\circ}C$ to prevent the occurrence of the hexagonal phase featuring optical anisotropy. The phase composition, microstructure, and optical properties of the ZnS ceramics were subsequently investigated by employing X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Fouriertransform infrared spectroscopy. The results obtained indicate that the ZnS nanoparticles feature the cubic phase, without the hexagonal phase. Moreover, with increasing S, the crystallinity and particle size of the ZnS nanoparticles increased. The crystallinity and density of the ZnS ceramics improved when the molar ratio of S was higher than the molar ratio of Zn, thereby enhancing the transmittance. Furthermore, the ZnS ceramic with an S/Zn value of 1.2 was found to exhibit the highest transmittance of approximately 69% owing to the reduced occurrence of the hexagonal phase and a high density of 99.8%.

ZnS substrates with excellent transmittance in the mid-infrared region ($3-5{\mu}m$) were prepared using hot pressing instead of conventional chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Diamond-like carbon(DLC) was coated on either one or both sides of the ZnS substrates to improve their mechanical properties and transmittance. More specifically DLC was coated using CVD with an Ar and $C_2H_2$ mixed gas, and Ge was used as the bonding layer. During CVD, the bias voltage was fixed to 500 V and analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), nanoindenter, scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive spectrometry. Results of hardness analysis using the nanoindenter, showed that DLC coating increased from 5.9 to 17.7 GPa after deposition. The FT-IR spectroscopy results showed that, in the mid-infrared region ($3-5{\mu}m$), the average transmittance of the samples with DLC coating on one and both sides increased by approximately 6% and approximately 11.2% respectively. In conclusion, the DLC coating improved the durability and transmittance of the ZnS substrates.

In this study, we fabricated ZnS substrates with excellent transmittance in the mid-infrared region (3-5 ㎛) using hot pressing instead of conventional chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Diamond-like carbon (DLC) was coated on either one or both sides of the ZnS substrates to improve their mechanical properties and transmittance efficiency. To reduce the reflectance and further improve transmittance in the mid-infrared region, anti-reflection (AR) coating was designed for DLC/ZnS /AR and AR/ ZnS /AR structures. The coating structure, microstructure, and optical properties of the AR-coated ZnS substrates were subsequently investigated by employing energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The FTIR spectroscopy results demonstrated that, in the mid-infrared region, the average transmittance of the samples with AR coating on one and both sides increased by approximately 18% and 27%, respectively. Thus, AR coating improved the transmittance of the ZnS substrates.

산업의 성장으로 가스사용량이 증가함에 따라 가스설비, 화학플랜트 등 시설 또한 점차로 증가하고 있으나, 가스에 대한 안전관리는 여전히 미흡한 실정이다. 공장과 가정에서 많이 사용되고 있는 메탄은 천연가스의 주성분으로 가연성이면서 폭발성가스이어서 그에 대한 안전관리도 매우 중요하다. 그 한 가지 방안으로 $3.2\;{\mu}m$ 중적외선 영역의 LED 및 PD를 이용하여 메탄가스누출검지시스템을 개발하고자 한다. 이 파장대역의 센서로 레이저를 이용할 경우 고열이 발생하여 초저온 냉각장치가 필요하나 LED는 상온에서 동작함으로 냉각장치가 필요 없다. 그래서 초소형이나 휴대용으로 구현이 가능하다. $3.2\;{\mu}m$ 부근의 파장대역은 $1.67\;{\mu}m$에 비하여 메탄흡수강도가 강하여서 극미량의 가스탐지가 가능하고 응답성 또한 빠르다. 본 연구에서는 이를 상용화하여 매설 및 노출배관 등 가스설비의 가스누출을 보다 정확하고 신속히 검지함으로써 사고를 미연에 방지하고 그 피해를 최소화하고자 한다.
