Highly Sensitive, Mass Producible Organic Photodetectors for Medical Sensors, Fingerprint Recognition

Image
Researchers created highly sensitive, transparent organic photodetectors that are compatible with CMOS fabrication techniques. These photodetectors absorb green light. They created an organic-silicon hybrid RGB imaging sensor by fusing one of these green organic photodetectors with a silicon photodiode that had red and blue filters. Credit goes to Ajou University's Sungjun Park. New photodetectors that absorb green light may be beneficial for fingerprint recognition, medical sensors, and other applications. Researchers have created and demonstrated brand-new, highly sensitive, transparent organic photodetectors that can be made using CMOS manufacturing techniques. These novel photodetectors could be incorporated into organic-silicon hybrid image sensors for a variety of uses. These include tools for fingerprint identification, heart-rate monitoring based on light, and detecting the presence of surrounding items. The majority of today's imaging sensors are based on CMOS technolo...
