In this study, Pb(Zr-0.4,Ti-0.6)O-3(PZT) film pyroelectric infrared sensors were fabricated on a Si substrate with a SiO2/SiN multilayer-stack infrared (IR) absorber and characterized. Since an IR absorber is a critical element that determines the sensitivity of IR sensors, we have proposed a multilayer-stack IR absorber based on complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) compatible materials for the PZT film pyroelectric sensor. We designed and fabricated a SiO2/SiN multilayer-stack IR absorber that possesses a broad and high IR absorptance in the wavelength range from 8 to 14 mu m. The thicknesses of the SiO2 and SiN films were designed as 550 and 850 rim, respectively, according to the calculation result of absorptance in the multilayer films. The SiO2/SiN multilayer-stack absorber was integrated on PZT film sensors by plasmaenhanced chemical vapor deposition, and 86% average IR absorptance was obtained in the wavelength range from 8 to 14 mu m. A specific detectivity of 1.15 x 10(7) cmHz(0.5)/W was achieved at 30 Hz on the PZT film pyroelectric sensor.
