Pyroelectric sensor for the detection of skin prints
Abstract:
The invention relates to a skin print sensor (120) comprising a plurality of elementary acquisition cells (121) which are arranged in and/or on a substrate and each of which includes: a pyroelectric conversion element (PYR) comprising first and second electrodes that are separated by a layer of pyroelectric material, the first electrode being connected to a node (GND) applying a reference potential of the sensor, and the second electrode being connected to a reading node (SN) of the cell; and a third electrode (EL) which is connected to the reading node (SN), is coated with a dielectric layer and is designed to form a capacitance along with the skin of a user.
