Thermal image sensor and method of manufacturing the same

Abstract

A thermal image sensor and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. A row electrode and a column electrode are formed on a substrate. A multi-layer stack includes a sensing layer, a first sensing electrode and a second sensing electrode which are in contact with the sensing layer with a channel formed between the first sensing electrode and the second sensing electrode, an absorbing electrode connected to the first sensing electrode, an insulating layer configured to insulate the absorbing electrode from the second sensing electrode and the sensing layer, and a protecting layer configured to cover an exterior. Supports are configured to allow the multi-layer stack to float with respect to the substrate. A first intervening electrode and a second intervening electrode are configured to connect the low electrode and the column electrode to the first sensing electrode and the second sensing electrode through the supports.
