Noise Equivalent Temperature Difference

ABSTRACTUncooled double-cantilever microbolometers have the potential of reaching a noise-equivalent temperature difference (NETD) approaching the theoretical limit and thus have gained increasing interest. Each pixel of the device consists of two overlapping bimaterial cantilevers that deflect in opposite directions as their temperature rises due to the absorption of incident infrared radiation. This paper reports recent progress in the development of these double-cantilever focal plane arrays (FPAs), including fabrication and post-process curvature modification.
