Infrared detector and preparation method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides an infrared detector and a preparation method thereof. A detection structure layer and a blind pixel structure layer are arranged in each effective pixel in an effective pixel array; and the detection structure layer and the blind pixel structure layer are respectively located in both sidewall surfaces of a non-doped fin structure. According to the invention, the detection structure layer and the blind pixel structure layer are integrated in the same effective pixel, the proportion of pixels is saved and the device integration is improved, the flexible adjustment of the resistance of the infrared detector can also be realized without being affected by the lithography and thin film thickness, and the detection sensitivity is further improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of image sensors, in particular to an infrared detector and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In the traditional infrared image sensor chip design, the blind element array and the effective pixel array are not in the same area at all. Usually, one row (or several rows) or one column (or several columns) are arranged outside the effective pixel array to design blind elements. array, and share the blind element structure through the control signal in the same column, and eliminate the influence of thermal noise on the sensitivity through the difference in infrared heat sensitivity between the blind element array and the pixel array. [0003] However, in the structure of the traditional infrared image sensor, since the blind element array and the pixel array are not in the same area, the environment of the blind element array and the pixel array is not the same, which will lead to the ...

[0003] However, in the structure of the traditional infrared image sensor, since the blind element array and the pixel array are not in the same area, the environment of the blind element array and the pixel array is not the same, which will lead to the difference between the blind element array and the pixel array. The difference in thermal noise ultimately affects the detection sensitivity of infrared image sensors

[0004] In addition, the sensitive layer of the traditional uncooled infrared detector is a planar structure, and the sensitive layer is sandwiched between the upper and lower electrodes.

In the design of traditional resistors, the resistance value is affected by many factors such as photolith
