An optical lens that senses gas

Researchers at the University of Jena have developed a crystalline material that has been moulded into a lens. The unique feature of this type of lens is its ability to absorb gas and thus change its refractive behaviour. This should make it possible to realise new types of intelligent gas sensors.

Silicon-based photodiodes for cheaper IR-sensors

A new research project aims at a considerable improvement of the infrared light sensitivity of silicon photodiodes, so that they can be used as low-cost IR sensors. Therefore, the diodes will be specially structured on the surface and they will also receive an additional thin metal layer for improved quantum efficiency.
