Abstract:
1. A thermal-type infrared solid-state imaging device, comprising: a substrate in which an integrated circuit for reading out a signal is formed; an infrared detector having at least a diaphragm including a temperature detecting section and a support section supporting the diaphragm above a surface of one side of the substrate with space in between and including a wiring electrically connecting the integrated circuit and the temperature detecting section of the diaphragm; and an eaves section connected to the vicinity of outer circumference of the diaphragm and having at least a first region extending to the outside of the diaphragm, a second region connected to the vicinity of outer circumference of the diaphragm, and a third region rising upward in mid air from the vicinity of outer circumference, and transmitting the heat generated by absorbing incident infrared rays to the diaphragm, wherein the eaves section has the thickness of the first region thicker than the thickness of the second region and third region.
