Fully 3D printed prototype for ‘bionic eye’
A team of researchers at the University of Minnesota have, for the first time, fully 3D printed an array of light receptors on a hemispherical surface. This discovery marks a significant step toward creating a 'bionic eye' that could someday help blind people see or sighted people see better.The research is published in Advanced Materials, a peer-reviewed scientific journal covering materials science. The author also holds the patent for 3D-print...
Extended InGaAs detectors with wide dynamic range
LASER COMPONENTS is a manufacturer of extended InGaAs detectors. Theysupply customers all over the world with industrial grade quantum detectors from their research and production facility in Arizona. The semiconductor material absorbs incidentIR photons in the intrinsic region generating electron hole pairs which are collectedat external electrodes. Photovoltaic detectors are an appropriate choice in many applicationsdue to their high sensitivit...
