Quantum dots to spark new SWIR wave
15 December 2021
Imec's Paweł Malinowski looks at the SWIR imaging landscape, as STMicroelectronics announces a quantum dot SWIR sensor at IEDM
Images taken with STMicroelectronics' 940nm NIR Quantum Film sensor (top left) and with its 1,400nm SWIR QF sensor (bottom left). Corresponding images taken using a visible smartphone camera (right). The QF NIR image shows better contrast between black electrical wires hidden in the dark green leaves, and tree trunks and branches hidden in front of the dark wood fence. The SWIR QF image shows how effective it is to use SWIR imaging to see through a silicon wafer. Credit: STMicroelectronics
