Abstract:
A structure with specific front cut windows for frontetched releasing was designed.Based on technology such as high precision mask,LPCVD(low-pressure chemical vapor deposition),IBE(ion beam etching) dry etching,TMAH wet etching,a CMOS compatible MEMS polycrystalline silicon thermopile IR detector is designed and fabricated.The experimental thermopile chip yield a product rate of 90%,and it has a measured responsivity of 12.5 V/W and a detectivity of 1×10
7cmHz
1/2/W.It paves a way for researches of large scale IR array.
