Silicon-based photodiodes are widely used due to their low cost, low noise, and compatibility with standard IC technologies. However, silicon has a bandgap of 1.12 eV—equivalent to a wavelength of ...

(Nanowerk News) The near-infrared light is a light source with the shortest wavelength, indicated outside of the red color in the light spectrum. The near-infrared light has been widely used in ...

Imec, the Leuven, Belgium-based research and innovation hub in nano- and digital technologies, has announced the successful integration of a “pinned photodiode structure” in thin-film image sensors.

The integration of silicon‐germanium technology in photonic devices has transformed optoelectronics, enabling the realisation of high‐speed, high‐sensitivity detectors that are central to modern ...

Single junction type (a) and the proposed double junction type (b) solar cells are compared with the conventional TANDEM type (c) and the proposed face-to-face type (d) multi-junction connections. A ...

The near-infrared light is a light source with the shortest wavelength, indicated outside of the red color in the light spectrum. The near-infrared light has been widely used in optical communications ...

Scientists have proposed creating vertical silicone nanowires with high sensitivity by using silicone and semiconductor process. The near-infrared light is a light source with the shortest wavelength, ...
