Problems solved by technology

Thermopile infrared detectors made with MEMS technology mostly use etching from the back of the silicon wafer to form a full-film structure. This method requires alignment and exposure on both sides of the front and back, and has poor process compatibility with semiconductor foundries.
In addition, this method usually uses wet etching, which has the disadvantages of large chip size and high manufacturing cost

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an infrared thermopile sensor, in particular to an infrared thermopile sensor based on a CMOSDPTM (DoublePolyTripleMetal) mixed-signal process and a manufacturing method thereof, belonging to the technical field of design and manufacture of MEMS devices. Background technique [0002] Infrared detectors are one of the most critical components in an infrared system. The thermopile infrared detector is an uncooled infrared detector developed earlier. Its working principle is based on the Seebeck effect, that is, the temperature difference between two different electrical conductors or semiconductor materials causes a voltage difference between the two materials. Because thermopile infrared detectors have the advantages of small size, can work at room temperature, wide-spectrum infrared radiation response, can detect constant radiation, and low manufacturing cost, they are widely used in security monitoring, medical treatment, life...
