in the wavelength range exceeding 3,000 nm but not exceeding 30,000 nm;
6. A. 002. a. 3. f. Non‑"space‑qualified" non‑linear (2‑dimensional) infrared "focal plane arrays" based on 'microbolometer' material having individual elements with an unfiltered response in the wavelength range equal to or exceeding 8,000 nm but not exceeding 14,000 nm;
                  Technical Note:
For the purposes of 6A002.a.3.f., 'microbolometer' is defined as a thermal imaging detector that, as a result of a temperature change in the detector caused by the absorption of infrared radiation, is used to generate any usable signal.
6. A. 002. a. 3. g. Non‑"space‑qualified" "focal plane arrays" having all of the following:
1. Individual detector elements with a peak response in the wavelength range exceeding 400 nm but not exceeding 900 nm;
2. Specially designed or modified to achieve 'charge multiplication' and having a maximum "radiant sensitivity" exceeding 10 mA/W for wavelengths exceeding 760 nm; and
3. Greater than 32 elements;
6. A. 002. b. "Monospectral imaging sensors" and "multispectral imaging sensors", designed for remote sensing applications and having any of the following:
1. An Instantaneous‑Field‑Of‑View (IFOV) of less than 200 µrad (microradians); or
2. Specified for operation in the wavelength range exceeding 400 nm but not exceeding 30,000 nm and having all the following:
a. Providing output imaging data in digital format; and
b. Having any of the following characteristics:
1. "Space‑qualified"; or
2. Designed for airborne operation, using other than silicon detectors, and having an IFOV of less than 2.5 mrad (milliradians);
Note: 6A002.b.1. does not apply to "monospectral imaging sensors" with a peak response in the wavelength range exceeding 300 nm but not exceeding 900 nm and only incorporating any of the following non‑"space‑qualified" detectors or non‑"space‑qualified" "focal plane arrays":
a. Charge Coupled Devices (CCD) not designed or modified to achieve 'charge multiplication'; or
b. Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) devices not designed or modified to achieve 'charge multiplication'.
6. A. 002. c. 'Direct view' imaging equipment incorporating any of the following:
1. Image intensifier tubes specified by 6A002.a.2.a. or 6A002.a.2.b.;
2. "Focal plane arrays" specified by 6A002.a.3.; or
3. Solid state detectors specified by 6A002.a.1.;
Technical Note:
For the purposes of 6A002.c., 'direct view' refers to imaging equipment that presents a visual image to a human observer without converting the image into an electronic signal for television display, and that cannot record or store the image photographically, electronically or by any other means.
Note: 6A002.c. does not apply to equipment as follows, when incorporating other than GaAs or GaInAs photocathodes:
                   a. Industrial or civilian intrusion alarm, traffic or industrial movement control or counting systems;
                   b. Medical equipment;
                   c. Industrial equipment used for inspection, sorting or analysis of the properties of materials;
                   d.
