This paper reports the development and evaluation of an InSb photovoltaic infrared sensor (InSb PVS) operating at room temperature. The InSb PVS consists of 700 InSb p+ - p- - n+ photodiodes connected in series, on a semi-insulating GaAs (100) substrate. An Al0.17rIn0.83Sb barrier layer between p+ and p- layers was used to reduce diffusion of photo-excited electrons. Cutoff wavelength was 6.8 mum and output signal was almost linear with irradiance up to 0.6 mW/cm2. Sensitivity of 67 muV/K and noise equivalent temperature difference of 2.2 mK/Hz1/2 was obtained at room temperature, which shows the sensor to be a suitable for noncontact thermometry.
