Northwestern Engineering researchers have developed a new approach to quantum device design that has produced the first gain-based long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) photodetector using band structure ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Blackbody response is highly desired in two-dimensional (2D) infrared photodetectors, which determines their practical applications. State-of-the-art available blackbody response ...

Abstract Side-chain engineering, a powerful approach to tune molecular properties and charge transport, has to the best of our knowledge never been ...

(Nanowerk News) Research groups from Southeast University and Nanjing Normal University Achieve New Milestones in High-Performance Room Temperature Infrared Detection A research team led by Professors ...

Extreme miniaturization of infrared (IR) detectors is critical for their integration into next-generation consumer electronics, wearables and ultra-small satellites. Thus far, however, IR detectors ...

Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic University have developed a lensless, gold-covered “microlens” that they believe will lead to breakthroughs in image-signal and infrared-imaging strength. The ...

Detecting wavelengths beyond visible light—for instance, infrared light—offers clear advantages. Case in point is cameras in autonomous vehicles that ‘see’ through smoke or fog and cameras that unlock ...
