Semiconductor material for short-wave infrared sensors developed

Researchers at the University of Cambridge have developed a new semiconductor material that could significantly enhance the capabilities of short-wave infrared (SWIR) sensors. This material, which can be produced using standard manufacturing techniques, promises to make SWIR sensors more affordable and easier to produce. SWIR sensors are crucial for applications like night vision, medical imaging, and food quality inspection, but their high cost and complex production have limited their widespread use. The new material, a perovskite, offers high performance at a potentially lower cost, opening up possibilities for its integration into consumer electronics, autonomous vehicles, and various industrial applications. This development could lead to a new generation of imaging technologies that are both more accessible and versatile.
