Abstract
In order to increase the fill factor of small size micro-bolometer, double layer micro-bolometer was designed in this paper with bottom sensitive/ top absorber structure. The deformation and residual stress characters of single layer and double layer structure models were simulated and optimized, and with the optimized results, double layer structure micro-bolometer was fabricated with multifarious semiconductor recipes. The surface image and deformation information of the fabricated micro-bolometer was tested. By using double layer structure, the area of membrane increases by a factor of 1.99 and 3.6 for the “L” shape leg structure and long “S” shape structure, respectively.
