At the 2024 IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM), imec, a world-leading research and innovation hub in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, and its partners in the Belgian project Q-COMIRSE, present a first of its kind prototype shortwave infrared image sensor with indium arsenide quantum dot photodiodes. The sensor demonstrated successful 1390 nm imaging results, offering an environmentally friendly alternative to first-generation quantum dots that contain lead, which limited their widespread manufacturing. The proof-of-concept is a critical ste...
