Abstract
We have used an AFM microcantilever as a far infrared detector. When hit by a pulsed laser, the cantilever starts damped oscillations which amplitude can be recorded and laser spectra can be recorded at λ > 25 μm which is the limit of 77K HCT detectors. We discuss the performances of this device.
