1. Bolometers are directly sensitive to the energy left inside the absorber.2. The same effect is used in ultrasensitive bolometers made from superconducting materials. 3. Bolometers are primarily used to measure the power contained in electromagnetic radiation.4. The measurement of absolute magnitude is made with an instrument called a bolometer . 5. Hence, HgCdTe detectors are relatively heavy compared to bolometers and require maintenance. 6. Most significant was the development of the cryogenic bolometer to detect molecular beams. 7. In contrast, in a bolometer , light heats up a tiny piece of material. 8. A microbolometer is a specific type of bolometer used as a detector in a thermal camera. 9. The project aims to develop a scintillating bolometer with the ability to veto ionizing background radiation. 10. The barretter principle is still used as a detector for microwave radiation, similar to a bolometer .
