The supporting substrate and the heat insulation layer together constitute a composite supporting structure, which realizes the overall support of the lithium tantalate wafer, and there is no suspended area. The problem of partial suspension of the lithium tantalate wafer in the existing lithium tantalate pyroelectric infrared detector is avoided from the root, and the ability of the lithium tantalate pyroelectric infrared detector to resist external mechanical vibration is improved, and the microphone effect of the lithium tantalate pyroelectric infrared detector is greatly reduced. At the same time, the thermal conductivity of the heat insulation layer is less than or equal to 0.05W / (m·K), which can ensure the heat insulation performance and enable the lithium tantalate pyroelectric infrared detector to maintain a high detection rate.
[0004] In the above patent, the heat conduction efficiency and thermal isolation effect are improved by designing the supporting substrate boss and the thermal insulation layer, but the thermal conductivity of the thermal insulation layer is still relatively high (≤0.1 W / (m·K)), which may cause part of the heat to still be lost to the environment, affecting the thermal response performance of the detector. In addition, the material selection of the thermal insulation layer, such as inorganic aerogel, organic aerogel, etc., may have stability problems in practical applications; in addition, the pyroelectric charge generated by the lithium tantalate wafer needs to be transmitted to the external circuit through multiple layers, including the first electrode layer, the second bonding layer and the first bonding layer, which increases the complexity of signal transmission and potential signal loss.

[0027] The polarization direction of the lithium tantalate wafer is perpendicular to the electrode plane to ensure the maximization of the pyroelectric effect, thereby improving the sensitivity of infrared detection; the cutting angle θ of the lithium tantalate wafer is 36°±2° so that the lithium tantalate wafer has the best pyroelectric coefficient after polarization.
[0028] The polarization treatment of lithium tantalate wafer adopts electric field polarization method, with polarization electric field strength of 10-30 kV / cm, polarization temperature of 80-120℃, and polarization time of 10-30 minutes, to ensure that the electric domains inside the wafer are fully oriented and arranged, thereby obtaining good pyroelectric properties.
[0029] The gold and copper materials filled in the conductive vias are filled by chemical plating to ensure good conductivity and mechanical strength; the parasitic capacitance of the conductive vias is ≤0.1pF to reduce noise interference during signal transmission.

[0031] The distributed module adopts a wavelet transform-Kalman filter hybrid algorithm to achieve noise suppression ≥40dB, sampling rate ≥3MHz, and signal-to-noise ratio ≥90dB in the frequency domain range of 0.1-100Hz; the distributed module also integrates a temperature compensation unit, a dynamic bias circuit and a digital filter module to further improve the stability and detection accuracy of the system.
[0032] The working principle of the embodiment of the present invention is: when external infrared radiation enters the system, it is first absorbed by the infrared absorption film. The film layer is made of vanadium oxide ( ) nanostructures, and its nanowire, nanotube or nanoparticle structure gives it an absorption rate of up to ≥95% in the 3-14μm infrared band. These nanostructures efficiently convert the absorbed infrared light energy into heat energy through their unique physical properties, causing the temperature of the lithium tantalate sensor module that is closely attached to the infrared absorption film to change. The polarization direction of the lithium tantalate wafer is perpendicular to the electrode plane, and after precise cutting angles (θ is 36°±2°) and electric field polarization treatment (polarization electric field strength 10-30 kV / cm, polarization temperature 80-120℃, polarization time 10-30 minutes), it ensures the full orientation of its internal electric domains, so that a significant pyroelectric effect can be generated when the temperature changes, realizing efficient conversion of thermal energy to electrical energy. In this process, the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer (platinum material, thickness 50-200nm) not only provide the necessary electrode structure for the pyroelectric effect, but also ensure the stability of the sensor module through its good mechanical strength.
[0033] The weak electrical signal generated by the lithium tantalate sensor module is transmitted to the external readout circuit quickly and with low loss through the conductive vias in the signal transmission link. The conductive vias penetrate the supporting substrate and are filled with gold and copper materials with a resistivity of ≤2μΩ·cm, ensuring good conductivity. At the same time, the conductive vias are filled by chemical plating, which gives them excellent mechanical strength and adaptability to complex use environments. In addition, the parasitic capacitance of the conductive vias is ≤0.1pF, which effectively reduces noise interference during signal transmission and ensures signal integrity. In the process of signal transmission, the distributed module plays a key role. Its built-in adaptive noise suppression algorithm uses a wavelet transform-Kalman filter hybrid algorithm to achieve noise suppression ≥40dB in the frequency domain range of 0.1-100Hz, a sampling rate ≥3MHz, and a signal-to-noise ratio ≥90dB. This algorithm can monitor the noise situation during signal transmission in real time and automatically adjust the filtering parameters to adapt to different noise environments.
[0034] The distributed module also integrates a temperature compensation unit, a dynamic bias circuit and a digital filter module to further improve the stability and detection accuracy of the system. The temperature compensation unit can monitor the changes in ambient temperature in real time and compensate the signal accordingly to eliminate the impact of temperature drift on the detection results; the dynamic bias circuit automatically adjusts the bias voltage according to the signal strength to ensure that the signal is transmitted in the best state; the digital filter module further filters the signal to remove high-frequency noise and interference signals.
[0035] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 ,In the embodiment of the present invention, the system is deployed as an M×N array (M, N ≥ 8), the unit spacing is 1-5mm, the array is interconnected via CAN bus, the transmission delay is ≤1ms, and real-time data fusion under the OSI model protocol stack is supported.
[0036] The system is also equipped with a self-test module, which includes a blackbody radiation reference source and a fault diagnosis circuit, which can monitor the operating status of the system in real time to ensure the reliability and stability of the system.
[0037] The system is packaged in an airtight ceramic shell with a thermal expansion coefficient of 6.5-7.5ppm / ℃. It is filled with argon gas with a purity of ≥99.999%. The system's performance indicators include detection rate , thermal response time constant τ≤20ms, equivalent noise power .
[0038] The working principle of the embodiment of the present invention is as follows: In the actual application scenario, the system is deployed as an M×N array (M, N≥8), the unit spacing is 1-5mm, interconnected through the CAN bus, the transmission delay is ≤1ms, and supports real-time data fusion under the OSI model protocol stack. When the system is installed at the end of the robotic arm and is 0.5-2m away from the monitoring target, the infrared radiation (temperature range 80-300℃) of the target area is After the nanowires absorb The chip temperature changes (ΔT≈0.05-0.5℃), generating pyroelectric charge These charges are quickly transmitted to the FPGA circuit through platinum electrodes and copper vias, with a transmission loss of ≤2%. In the data processing stage, the temperature compensation unit uses a Pt100 sensor to correct the ambient temperature drift in real time (±0.1°C accuracy), and the dynamic bias circuit applies a 50V bias voltage (ripple 0.8mV) to increase the signal-to-noise ratio to 92dB.
[0039] As a high-precision radiation standard, the blackbody radiation reference source can simulate infrared radiation signals of known intensity. By periodically activating the blackbody radiation reference source, stable infrared radiation is generated inside the system. The radiation is received by the infrared absorption film and converted into heat energy, which in turn triggers the lithium tantalate sensor module to generate a corresponding pyroelectric signal. This process is equivalent to an internal calibration of the system, which can effectively eliminate detection errors caused by environmental changes or system aging.
[0040] The system is equipped with a self-check module, which starts the blackbody reference source (emissivity 0.96, temperature 50℃±0.3℃) for calibration every 24 hours. The impedance spectrum analysis detects abnormal units (positioning error ≤80μm) to ensure the reliability and stability of the system. During the entire working process, the ultra-low thermal conductivity insulation layer effectively reduces heat loss through its unique reinforced skeleton and shielding layer design, ensuring the high-performance operation of the system in a high temperature difference environment.
[0041] The fault diagnosis circuit is responsible for real-time monitoring of the electrical performance of each key node of the system. It collects voltage and current signals in the signal transmission link and the operating parameters of the distributed modules to conduct a comprehensive health check on the system. Once an abnormal signal is detected, the fault diagnosis circuit can quickly locate the fault location and accurately determine the type of fault through technical means such as impedance spectrum analysis. For example, when the impedance of a unit in the system changes abnormally, the fault diagnosis circuit can determine whether it is a specific fault such as electrode breakage or interlayer debonding through impedance spectrum analysis, and feedback the fault information to the system control center so that maintenance measures can be taken in time to prevent the fault from further expanding and affecting the normal operation of the system.
[0042] During the operation of the system, the airtight ceramic shell and the argon gas filled inside work together to ensure the long-term stability of the system performance. For example, in harsh environments such as high temperature and high humidity, the airtight ceramic shell can effectively block the invasion of external moisture and impurities, while the high-purity argon gas inside keeps the system dry and clean, so that key components such as the lithium tantalate sensor module and infrared absorption film are always in the best working condition, thereby ensuring the system detection rate. , thermal response time constant τ≤20ms, equivalent noise power Stable output of high performance indicators such as .
