The present invention relates to uncooled infrared detector with infrared
absorption structure in which the supporting layer, detection layer,
protecting layer, and dielectric layer construct .lamda./4 resonating
absorbtion structure as a single body. In order to enhance the
characteristic of uncooled infrared detector, it is essential for the
infrared absorption layer to absorb incident infrared with high
efficiency. The present invention is characterized in that the infrared
detector with unified absorption layer includes an infrared detection
film, a device protecting layer, a supporting layer for thermally
isolated structure, and a dielectric layer, etc. in its absorption
structure. Due to this characteristic, highly efficient infrared
absorption is possible with much less thermal mass than the absorption
layer for the structure of existing metal/dielectric/metal structure and
regardless of the distortion of floating structure caused by fabrication
fault rather than air cavity .lamda./4 structure.
