An infrared thermal sensor (10) for detecting infrared radiation, comprising a substrate (1) and a cap structure (2) together forming a sealed cavity (3), the cavity comprising a gas at a predefined pressure; a membrane (4) arranged in said cavity (3) for receiving infrared radiation (IR); a plurality of beams (5) for suspending the membrane (4); a plurality of thermocouples (6) for measuring a temperature difference (AT) between the membrane and the substrate; wherein the ratio of the thermal resistance (RT1) between the membrane and the substrate through the thermocouples, and the thermal resistance (RT2) between the membrane and the substrate through the beams and through the gas is a value in the range of 0.8 to 1.2. A method of designing such a sensor (10), and a method of producing such a sensor is also disclosed. |
