A method of forming a focal plane array having at least one pixel (2) which is fabricated by: forming a first wafer having sensing material (3) provided on a surface, which is covered by a first sacrificial layer, the sensing material being a thermistor material defining at least one pixel; providing supporting legs (7) for the at least one pixel within the first sacrificial layer, covering them with a further sacrificial layer and forming first conductive portions in the surface of the sacrificial layer that are in contact with the supporting legs; forming a second wafer (9) having read-out integrated circuit (ROIC), the second wafer being covered by a second sacrificial layer, into which is formed second conductive portions in contact with the ROIC; bringing the sacrificial oxide layers of the first wafer and second wafer together such that the first and second conductive portions are aligned and bonding them together such that the sensing material is transferred from the first wafer to the second wafer when a sacrificial bulk layer of the first wafer is removed; and removing the sacrificial oxide layers to release the at least one pixel, such that the supporting legs are arranged underneath it. |
