A ThorLabs camera for “NIR”. Comments on Kelvin labeling of image sensors and electromagnetic regions

Chad, I found the spectral sensitivity of the CS135MUN camera.  I am looking out past 2,000 nm = 2 um (below 1500 Kelvin, below 85 THz) https://www.thorlabs.com/images/tabimages/CS135MUN_Quantum_Efficiency_G1-780.gif https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/wiens-law I also found your ThorLabs repositories on GitHub, but probably not sufficient for what I need. https://github.com/Thorlabs Do you make your own images sensors, or use ones

A link going to House.gov is automatically going to a nonprofit site, without explaining relationships and funding

A link going to House.gov is automatically going to a nonprofit site, without explaining relationships and funding I was checking (“gun violence” site:gov) and a link comes up: https://iqconnect.house.gov/iqextranet/iqClickTrk.aspx?&cid=IL10BS&crop=0000.0000.0000.0000&report_id=&redirect=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.gunviolencearchive.org%2F&redir_log=802130211903248 This should stop at House.gov first, so that the relation between House.gov and a non-profit site is clear. As it is, Internet users cannot easily determine

One expects ThorLabs to have “thermal imaging microscopes” but they do not

ThorLabs: I have been looking at thermal (LWIR) camera sensors lately and came to your ThorLabs site looking for lenses for LWIR.  Then I saw your microscope cameras and wondered if anyone is looking at “thermal imaging microscopes”.  I would think there must be people looking at heat emission from PCBs and components which are
