Abstract
A method of fabricating uncooled thermally sensitive sandwich structur es based on amorphous hydrated silicon films is discussed and experime ntal results are reported. The structures have an area of 10(-4) cm(2) , a resistance of congruent to 10 k Ohm, and a temperature coefficient of resistance similar or equal to 2%/K. At 30 Hz and a current of sim ilar or equal to 1 mu A, the excess noise exceeds the thermal resistan ce noise by a factor of 1.7. (C) 1997 American Institute of Physics. [ S1063-7850(97)02706-7].
