Abstract: An internal temperature sensor includes substrates with one surface to be placed in contact with a measurement surface of an object to measure an internal temperature of the object, a heat flux sensor on another surface of the substrates, and a temperature sensor. The heat flux sensor is fabricated through a MEMS process and includes first and second temperature measurement parts, and a thin film including a thermopile to detect a temperature difference between the first and second temperature measurement parts. The thin film is supported by a thermally conductive member to form a space between the first temperature measurement part and the substrates and to extend parallel to the substrates. The thermally conductive member conducts heat traveling from the object through the substrates to the second temperature measurement part. The temperature sensor measures the temperature of a part of the substrates that is in contact with the thermally conductive member.
