Abstract: A novel optically readable infrared imaging array device with "Temperature compensation beams" pixels has been proposed.The pixel not only has high sensitivity to infrared radiations,but also has excellent characteristic to reduce the negative influence induced by the fluctuation of environmental temperature.The geometric parameters of the structure have been designed and optimized by investigating the relations between them and some relative performances.Thermal-mechanical sensitivity and NETD of the device designed are estimated as 2.39×10^-3and 2.4respectively.The compensation characteristic of the "Temperature compensation beams" has been proved through ANSYS simulation.
