Abstract:Pyroelectric thin films are receiving increasing attention for the next generation of integrated room temperature uncooled IR arrays. In this study, steady state modeling of a pixel consisting of black absorber, pyroelectric, Pt, TiOz, SiOl and SI are performed. Thermal conduction and radiative transfer are assumed to take place across this stack and at the Si substrateair interface respectively. The effects of individual film thickness, IR chopping frequency, thermal conductivity of the thermal barrier layer … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
