Organic Optical Upconversion Offers Alternative to InGaAs-Based SWIR Imaging
A device constructed from low-cost materials and that exhibited high stability at temperatures as high as 392 °F (200 °C) is capable of imaging lightwaves in the shortwave infrared (SWIR) region. Scientists in Europe developed the organic device by combining a squaraine dye-coated flexible substrate with an OLED.

Quantitative CMOS Imaging – qCMOS: The Dawn of a New Era
Wed, May 19, 2021 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM EDT
Imaging in general and semiconductor imaging in particular has penetrated every aspect of our lives, especially in the sciences. It has empowered many experiments from relying on subjective recording into objectively documentable, repeatable and quantifiable methods. This webinar with Peter Seitz, Ph.D., will provide an overview of semiconductor image sensors and introduce photon-resolving quantitative imaging, or qCMOS. Presented by Hamamatsu Corporation.

.: All Things Photonics

Eric Fossum, inventor of the CMOS active pixel image sensor, talks about the past, present, and future of imaging applications and the technology transfer in industry and academia. CEOs Berthold Schmidt (TRUMPF Photonic Components) and Adam Piotrowski (VIGO Systems), the two newest board members of the European Photonics Industry Consortium (EPIC), speak about their new platform and spurring photonics innovation.
