Ground breaking, Graphene based, uncooled room temperature, IR Camera/Detector
High speed, nano second switching, higher sensitivity than a cooled camera
- Single atom thick graphene based detector
- Nano second switching times
- Very high sensitivity (> 109)
- Fast response times
- Uncooled (Room temperature)
- DARPA funded research
- NISN accelerator participant
Current Infrared Camera Technology
- Current IR Cameras are based on on Mercury-Cadmium-Telluride (MCT) and Bolometers, are 40 years old concepts
- Micro-bolometers suffer from low sensitivity and slow response (milli seconds) and tedious multi-step complex lithographic processes
- MCT based cooled cameras need cryogenic cooling
- Quantum Dot based detectors suffer from poor LWIR performance
DARPA funded research
