Abstract
A process for producing a microbolometer including a vanadium-oxide-based sensitive material containing an additional chemical element chosen from arsenic, germanium, silicon and phosphorus, the process including: determining an effective amount of the additional chemical element from which the modified compound, having undergone a step of exposure to a temperature Tfor a time Δt, exhibits an electrical resistivity ρat room temperature that is higher than 10% of its native value; producing the sensitive material in a thin layer, this material being formed from the modified compound having an amount of the additional chemical element that is greater than or equal to the effective amount; and exposing the sensitive material to the temperature Tfor the time Δt.
