Abstract
The present disclosure relates to microbolometer structures having top layers of amorphous silicon or vanadium oxide. In some examples, combinations of carbon nanotubes, nanoparticles, and/or thin films can be deposited atop the existing top layer of amorphous silicon or top layer of vanadium oxide of a microbolometer structure. Such configurations can increase the sensitivity of the microbolometers to less than 4 mK, less than 2 mK, and in some examples less than 1 mK.
