摘要
This paper reports about the development of a low-cost, CMOS compatible process technology to create thermally insulated pixel regions for integrated microbolometers. The enabling technology is based on a modified sintered porous silicon (sPS) technique. An array of 280 x 240 thermally isolated pixels with lateral dimensions of 30 x 30 mu m(2) and epitaxial silicon (Si) thickness down to 500 nm is presented. In the final design the pixel is suspended by silicon dioxide (SiO2) arms. The design and fabrication process is described and mechanical deformation properties subtracted from profilometer images are presented.
