Such semiconductors are used often in lasers optics and infrared detectors. The National Science Foundation and USC funded the work.
Existing infrared detectors use cryogenically cooled semiconductors or thermal detectors known as microbolometers in which changes in electrical resistance can be correlated to temperatures.
#We set out to make an optomechanical thermal infrared detector#says Ertugrul Cubukcu assistant professor at the University of Pennsylvania.#
#Revolutionary New High-speed Infrared detector Sees First Light The first prototype of a new generation of fast and very sensitive detectors has been installed successfully on the PIONIER instrument at ESO Paranal Observatory.
These capabilities, unique for an infrared detector, are crucial for many applications, ranging from fundamental science to medicine.
and a true revolution in the field of infrared detectors, said ESO astronomer Antoine Merand when first using the camera.
