We demonstrate an infrared broadband metasurface absorber that is suitable for increasing
the response speed of a microbolometer by reducing its thermal mass. A large fraction of …

The semiconducting metal phosphorus trichalcogenides (MPX3, X= S, Se), a new family of
layered atomic materials similar to the transition‐metal dichalcogenides, have recently …

We investigate the polaron transport in V 2 O 5 using Density Functional Theory (DFT)+ U.
The Bond Distortion Method (BDM) is utilized to help stabilize an excess electron as a self …

Vanadium oxide (VxOy) multilayer sandwich structures previously studied by our group were
found to yield a sensitive thermometer thin film material suitable for microbolometer …

Room-temperature thermal detection at a wavelength of 2 µm in the short-wave infrared
range (1.7–3 µm) was demonstrated for the first time using a Nb_5N_6 microbolometer. The …

Uncooled microbolometers are widely used for Infrared imaging including night vision
camera for security and surveillance, weapon detection in military application and monitor …

Uncooled microbolometers use ultra-thin metal or dielectric layer to absorb the incoming
longwave infrared (LWIR) radiation. This is due to the fact that thermometer layers in …

This paper presents a novel dual-level capacitive microcantilever-based thermal detector
that is implemented in the commercial surface micromachined PolyMUMPs technology. The …

Uncooled microbolometers use an ultra-thin metal layer to absorb the incoming longwave
infrared (LWIR) radiation. In this paper, ultra-thin films of Nb, NiCr, Ti, and Zr are considered …

A novel chirped metal structure (CMS) is developed for polarimetric enhanced detection of
both mid‐wave (MW)(3–5 µm) and long‐wave (LW) infrared (IR) wavelength bands (8–14 …
