A microbolometer infrared detector is a specific type of bolometer used as a detector in a thermal camera. A bolometer is a device that measures the incident infrared radiation by turning it into heat and then measuring the change in some physical property, such as electrical resistance. A microbolometer consists of an absorber material that heats up when exposed to infrared radiation, and a read-out integrated circuit (ROIC) that measures the change in resistance of the absorber. The resistance change is then processed into temperatures that can be used to create an image 1. Microbolometers can operate without cryogenic cooling and cover wavelengths from 8 to 14 micrometers.

The industry trend of microbolometer infrared detectors is driven by the increasing demand for low-cost, high-performance, and uncooled thermal imaging devices for various applications, such as security, industrial, automotive, and medical. The market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5% during the forecast period, from 2021 to 2028.

Some of the key factors that influence the industry trend are:

The development of complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) compatible microbolometer technology, which reduces the fabrication cost and complexity by integrating the read-out integrated circuit (ROIC) and the micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) process.

The innovation of wafer-level packaging (WLP) technology, which enables the miniaturization and mass production of microbolometer devices by eliminating the need for wire bonding and vacuum sealing.

The improvement of pixel structure, absorber material, and ROIC design, which enhances the performance parameters of microbolometer detectors, such as resolution, sensitivity, response time, noise equivalent temperature difference (NETD), and power consumption.

The expansion of application fields and customer segments, which creates new opportunities and challenges for microbolometer infrared detector manufacturers and suppliers.
