摘要:
A bolometric heat detector having an active part composed of at least two coplanar electrodes (8, 10) placed in electrical contact with a first thin semiconducting layer (6), doped by a first doping agent with a first type of conductivity. There is a second thin semiconducting layer (4) doped like the first layer or undoped, and a third thin semiconducting layer (2) doped by a second doping agent with a second type of conductivity opposed to the first. The second layer (4) is placed between the first (6) and the third (2) layers.
摘要:
An electromagnetic radiation detection device including multiple elementary detectors grouped into one or more sub-assemblies each including several elementary detectors, where each elementary detector is connected by an interconnection to an impedance-matching device. The impedance-matching device is common to all the elementary detectors of a single sub-assembly, in each sub-assembly the interconnections have roughly the same resistance value.
摘要:
According to one aspect, the invention relates to a microbolometer array for thermal detection of light radiation in a given spectral band, comprising a supporting substrate and an array of microbolometers (300) of given dimensions, arranged in an array. Each of said microbolometers comprises a membrane (301) suspended above said supporting substrate, said membrane consisting of an element (305) for absorbing the incident radiation and a thermometric element (304) in thermal contact with the absorber, electrically insulated from said absorber element. The absorber element comprises at least one first metal/insulator/metal (MIM) structure comprising a multilayer of three superposed films of submicron-order thickness i.e. a first metallic film (311), a dielectric film (310), and a second metallic film (309), said MIM structure being able to have a resonant absorption of said incident radiation at at least one wavelength in said spectral band. The area of the microbolometer pixel covered by said membrane (301) is less than or equal to half of the total area of the microbolometer pixel.
