#Euro-Indo collaboration develops new photodetector Photodetectors that analyse scattered light in the ultraviolet (UV) range of the spectrum are used often in situations where the rapid detection of hazardous biological

To this end, photodetectors with an extremely narrow bandwidth are required, which only respond to particular wavelengths.

This means its bandwidth is five times narrower than that of a comparable photodetector. The device is also sensitive to polarised light,

while the photodetector was produced at the Universidad Polotécnica de Madrid in Madrid, Spain by Carlos Rivera, Jose Luis Pau and Eliaz Munoz.

A large number of photodetectors, with very narrow bandwidths, is necessary so as to simultaneously detect as many different substances as possible.

The photodetector developed by the international consortium is merely the size of a pin head

#Squid skin inspires eyelike photodetector Rice university rightoriginal Studyposted by Jade Boyd-Rice on August 27 2014the technology behind a new type of photodetector mimics the way squid likely sense colors.

The photodetector which sees colors in much the same way the human eye does uses an aluminum grating that can be added to silicon photodetectors with the silicon microchip industry s mainstay technology omplementary metal-oxide

Conventional photodetectors convert light into electrical signals but have no inherent color-sensitivity. To capture color images photodetector makers must add color filters that can separate a scene into red green and blue color components.

This color filtering is done commonly using off-chip dielectric or dye color filters which degrade under exposure to sunlight

Zheng s color photodetector uses a combination of band engineering and plasmonic gratings comb-like aluminum structures with rows of parallel slits.

which is a common technique in CMOS processing Zheng deposited a thin layer of aluminum onto a silicon photodetector topped with an ultrathin oxide coating.

Color selection is performed by utilizing interference effects between the plasmonic grating and the photodetector s surface.

and the width and spacing of the slits Zheng was able to preferentially direct different colors into the silicon photodetector

#Nature inspires color-sensitive CMOS-compatible photodetector Researchers at Rice university's Laboratory for Nanophotonics (LANP) have developed a new image sensor that mimics the way we see color by integrating light amplifiers and color

and other photodetectors used in cameras. Conventional image sensors work by first converting light into electrical signals then combining that information with the red green

Zheng's color photodetector consists of an ultra-thin oxide coating atop a thin layer of aluminum that was deposited onto a silicon photodetector using a common technique called electron-beam evaporation.

and the width and spacing of the slits the device is able to preferentially direct different colors into the silicon photodetector

The plasmonic gratings don't just help the photodetector filter color; they also interact with each other thereby increasing the amount of light absorbed (and thus potentially reducing noise.

#Ultrafast graphene based photodetectors with data rates up to 50 GBIT/s In cooperation with Alcatel Lucent Bell labs researcher from AMO realized the worldwide fastest Graphene based photodetectors.

In the current work Graphene based photodetectors were integrated in a conventional silicon photonic platform designed for future on-chip applications in the area of ultrafast data communication.

In addition the specific features of Graphene-based photodetectors like dark current free and high speed operation

not only set a new benchmark for graphene based photodetectors but also demonstrate for the first time that Graphene based photodetectors surpass comparable detectors based on conventional materials concerning maximal data rates.

The work was supported by the European commission through the Flagship project Graphene and the integrated project Grafol as well as the DPG supported project Gratis.

#Biomimetic photodetector'sees'in color (Phys. org) Rice university researchers have created a CMOS-compatible biomimetic color photodetector that directly responds to red green

It uses an aluminum grating that can be added to silicon photodetectors with the silicon microchip industry's mainstay technology complementary metal-oxide semiconductor or CMOS.

Conventional photodetectors convert light into electrical signals but have no inherent color-sensitivity. To capture color images photodetector makers must add color filters that can separate a scene into red green and blue color components.

This color filtering is done commonly using off-chip dielectric or dye color filters which degrade under exposure to sunlight

The color photodetector resulted from a $6 million research program funded by the Office of Naval Research that aimed to mimic cephalopod skin using metamaterials compounds that blur the line between material and machine.

Zheng's color photodetector uses a combination of band engineering and plasmonic gratings comb-like aluminum structures with rows of parallel slits.

which is a common technique in CMOS processing Zheng deposited a thin layer of aluminum onto a silicon photodetector topped with an ultrathin oxide coating.

Color selection is performed by utilizing interference effects between the plasmonic grating and the photodetector's surface.

and the width and spacing of the slits Zheng was able to preferentially direct different colors into the silicon photodetector

Not only are we using the photodetector as an amplifier we're also using the plasmonic color filter as a way to increase the amount of light that goes into the detector he said.
