Study on a High Performance MEMS Infrared Thermopile Detector
Keyword(s):
This paper presents a high-performance micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) thermopile infrared detector. It consists of a double-end beam and a dual-layer thermocouple structure, which improves the responsivity of the detector. The etch-stop structure is integrated into the detector to prevent isotropic etching-caused damage on the device. The responsivity of the detector achieved 1151.14 V/W, and the measured response time was 14.46 ms. The detector had the potential to work as a high-precision temperature sensor and as a vacuum sensor.
