Abstract
Provided is an infrared ray sensor that can conduct a plurality of different types of detection such as temperature detection and gas detection in a simple structure and that is small size and low cost. The infrared ray sensor () includes, on one base (), a first infrared ray detection unit () including at least one infrared ray detection element () including an infrared ray detection material () with physical properties changing depending on properties of incident infrared rays and receives and detects ambient infrared rays, and a second infrared ray detection unit () including at least one infrared ray detection element () having an identical element structure to the infrared ray detection element of the first infrared ray detection unit (), is irradiated with infrared rays X for measurement having specific physical properties, and detects a change in the physical properties of the infrared rays X for measurement.
