Jülich researchers, together with Italian and German colleagues, have developed a particularly cost-effective infrared detector that can be easily integrated into existing camera chips and smartphones ...

Electronic enthusiasts may be interested in a new open source infrared sensor which has been created to support both Raspberry Pi and Arduino powered projects. The IR Detector proximity sensor has ...

Researchers at the University of Turku, Finland, have developed an organic infrared photodiode that achieves record-level sensitivity in devices that are ultrathin and ready to be integrated into ...

The first room-temperature light detector that can sense the full infrared spectrum has the potential to put heat vision technology into a contact lens. Unlike comparable mid- and far-infrared ...

Electro-optical detectors are used to measure or sense the radiation emitted or reflected by objects within the detector’s optical field of view (FOV). Passive systems operate without any illumination ...

Researchers from Rochester Institute of Technology’s Center for Detectors received new funding from the National Science Foundation to continue developing infrared detectors for the next generation of ...

A researcher has developed a new technique to detect long wave infrared (LWIR) photons of different wavelengths or 'colors.' The new detection and imaging technique will have applications in analyzing ...

The devices, which operate on a heterojunction-gated (HG) structure, demonstrate high responsivity and detectivity while maintaining a simplified fabrication process. This approach avoids the ...

The diverse solutions are designed for a wide range of tactical, persistent surveillance, border and coastal protection, AFV and drone applications SCD ‒ a global leader in the development and ...

A new kind of silicon photodetector invented by physicists in Canada and the UK should help to ensure that the Internet does not grind to a halt, as people share and download ever-more online data.
