Abstract: | We have been developing a monolithic microbolometer technology for uncooled infrared focal plane arrays (Uncooled IRFPAs) along the route from fabricating pixels of thin-film dielectric bolometers on micromachined silicon substrates. In the paper, the thermal-sensitive barium strontium titanate (BST) thin film capacitors for that objective prepared by Radio-Frequency Magnetron sputtering have been investigated focusing on the condition of fabrication of BST thin films. Capacitor-Temperature properties of the thermal-sensitive BST thin film capacitors have been measured with impedance analyzer. According to the Capacitor-temperature curves, these indicated that the temperature coefficient of dielectric constant (TCD) within the ambient temperature region highly depended on the Radio-Frequency Magnetron sputtering condition of fabrication of BST thin films. BST thin film capacitors with TCD-value more than 21%/K have been prepared on the optimized condition. That is a good base for preparation of dielectric bolometer mode of uncooled IRFPAs. |
