Abstract

The invention discloses an uncooled infrared detection pixel unit with a nanostructure photosensitive unit and adopting a backlighting mode and a planar array infrared imaging detector chip formed by the pixel unit. The detector chip is formed by bonding a silicon-based active sheet with a photosensitive unit array and a passive substrate sheet playing a supporting role. A large amount of two-dimensional arrays formed by the pixel units are arranged on the active sheet, and each pixel unit is composed of a central infrared transmission channel on the front surface of the silicon substrate, an ROIC readout circuit on the periphery of the transmission channel, a nanostructure photosensitive unit in the pixel center, a surface dielectric layer and a focused micro optic unit on the back surface of the silicon substrate. The infrared light is incident from one side of a micro lens on the back surface of the silicon substrate, the light is converged by the micro lens and is then focused on the nanostructure photosensitive unit on the front surface of the silicon substrate via the light transmission channel to be absorbed and detected. The backlighting nanostructure infrared detector has the advantages of high fill factors and quick response, the device structure and the manufacturing process are simple, and the backlighting nanostructure infrared detector can be used for manufacturing a low-cost infrared thermal imager.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of infrared detection, and relates to a backlighting infrared detection pixel unit with a nanostructure photosensitive element, an uncooled infrared imaging detector composed of the pixel unit and a preparation process thereof. Background technique [0002] The current uncooled infrared imaging detectors based on the principle of microbolometers all adopt the front-illuminated heat-sensitive film absorption detection method. figure 1 Pixel vertical cross-section for a microbolometer detector operating in the previous illumination regime. The infrared absorbing layer 12 containing the photosensitive film is suspended on the surface of the silicon substrate 21 containing the readout circuit (ROIC) through the supporting bridge legs 13 on both sides. The surface of the supporting legs 13 also contains conductive electrodes so that the two ends of the photosensitive unit are respectively connected to the ROIC. ...
