Development of high-performance ultra-low bandgap copolymers for near-infrared photodetectors. Hasselt University
Due to their application in night and thermal vision systems, infrared image sensors are truly imaginative. To date, they are produced via the so-called hybrid technology, in which both the detector and the electronic readout are prepared separately and then interconnected at the pixel level. Obviously, this is a time-consuming process, resulting in low throughput and thus high cost, limiting widespread use (e.g. smartphones). A monolithic ...
