This paper reports on the first demonstration of an ultra-high resolution (~371 pW/Hz 1/2 ) uncooled infrared (IR) detector based on a high frequency (136 MHz) Aluminum Nitride (AlN) piezoelectric resonant micro-plate completely released from the substrate and supported by two nanoscale Platinum (Pt) anchors. For the first time, fully metallic tethers were employed to support the freestanding vibrating body of a piezoelectric resonator and provide electrical connection to it (the device anchors are conventionally defined in the piezoelectric layer). Such innovative design, with minimum anchor cross section, enabled the implementation of an uncooled resonant thermal detector with ultra-high thermal resistance (~10 5 K/W) and electromechanical performance (mechanical quality factor, Q M ≈3133 in air, and electromechanical coupling coefficient, k t 2 ≈1.86%). Such unique combination of high sensitivity (~2.1 Hz/nW), low noise performance (~0.78 Hz/Hz 1/2 ) and high resonator figure of merit (FOM=k t 2 ⋅Q≈58.3) resulted in the first complete and compelling prototype of a low power (~11 mW) and high performance MEMS-CMOS resonant uncooled IR detector with detection limit pushed in ~100s pW/Hz 1/2 range.
