Infrared multiplier for photo-conducting sensors |
摘要 |
Photo-conducting infrared sensors are provided including a substrate (e.g., silicon) with one or more trenches formed on a first surface. An infrared-reflective film can be deposited directly or indirectly onto and conforming in shape with the first surface of the substrate. A lead chalcogenide film can be deposited directly or indirectly over the top of the infrared-reflective film and conforming in shape with the first surface of the substrate. Accordingly, the infrared-reflective film is directly or indirectly sandwiched between the substrate and the lead chalcogenide film. |

1. A photo-conducting infrared sensor, comprising:
(i) a substrate comprising a first surface including one or more trenches; (ii) an infrared-reflective film deposited directly or indirectly onto and conforming in shape with the first surface of the substrate; and (iii) a lead chalcogenide film deposited directly over the top of the infrared-reflective film and conforming in shape with the first surface of the substrate such that the infrared-reflective film is directly or indirectly sandwiched between the substrate and the lead chalcogenide film. |
