Abstract: | The thermal parameters of a SiGe microbolometer were calculated using numerical modeling. The calculated thermal conduction and thermal response time are
in good agreement with the values found experimentally and range between 2·10−7 and 7·10−8 W/K and 1.5 and 4.5 ms, respectively. High sensitivity of microbolometer is achieved due to optimization of the thermal response
time and thermal conduction by fitting the geometry of supporting heat-removing legs or by selection of a suitable material
providing boundary thermal resistance higher than 8·10−3 cm2·K/W at the SiGe interface.
