Large-area Flexible Organic Photodiodes Can Compete With Silicon Devices

Research supported by orgs including Office of Naval Research, Air Force Office of Scientific Research, and U.S. DOE's National Nuclear Security Administration.

The performance of flexible large-area organic photodiodes has advanced to the point that they can now offer advantages over conventional silicon photodiode technology, particularly for applications such as biomedical imaging and biometric monitoring that require detecting low levels of light across large areas.   The low-noise, solution-processed, flexible organic devices offer the ability to use arbitrarily shaped, large-area photodiodes to replace complex arrays that would be required wit...
