How do modern microbolometer cameras measure absolute temperature of an object?
But then I don't fully understand how you go from that to taking accurate temperature measurements of the object you are looking at. … I'm guessing it has to do with understanding the emissivity of the object you are looking at, the temperature of the room, and temperature of the sensor. …

What is the physical explanation behind the decrease of open circuit voltage as temperature ...
Solving the above equation gives us
$V_{oc}=\frac{kT}{q}\ln\left(\frac{I_L}{I_0}+1\right)$
A temperature increase causes an increase in the intrinsic carrier concentration which in turn increases the diode … These have opposing effects, and it turns out even inside $\ln$ the change in saturation current ends up dominating the temperature effect. …
