Global Cooled Mercury Cadmium Telluride (MCT) Infrared Detector Market Growth 2024-2030

Global Cooled Mercury Cadmium Telluride (MCT) Infrared Detector Market Growth 2024-2030


Mercury cadmium telluride (also cadmium mercury telluride, MCT, MerCad Telluride, MerCadTel, MerCaT or CMT) is a chemical compound of cadmium telluride (CdTe) and mercury telluride (HgTe) with a tunable bandgap spanning the shortwave infrared to the very long wave infrared regions. The amount of cadmium (Cd) in the alloy can be chosen so as to tune the optical absorption of the material to the desired infrared wavelength. CdTe is a semiconductor with a bandgap of approximately 1.5 electronvolts (eV) at room temperature. HgTe is a semimetal, which means that its bandgap energy is zero. Mixing these two substances allows one to obtain any bandgap between 0 and 1.5 eV. MCT detectors offer the highest sensitivity of all IR detectors in the range of 2 – 25 microns. These detectors can be offered either TE, liquid nitrogen, or cooled with a Stirling motor.

The global Cooled Mercury Cadmium Telluride (MCT) Infrared Detector market size is projected to grow from US$ 61.8 million in 2024 to US$ 124 million in 2030; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.4% from 2024 to 2030.
