American Scientists Discover Material for New Type of Sensor
Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have discovered that graphene, a carbon material with a single-atom structure, has photosensitive properties and can produce electric current when exposed to light. Researchers claim this discovery will impact multiple fields, including photography.
"Graphene could be an excellent photodetector material because the way it generates current is different from other photodetector materials," said Jarillo-Herrero. "It can sense a wide range of light wavelengths. For example, it works very well in the infrared spectrum, which is difficult for other materials to achieve. This would make graphene an important component for devices such as night vision goggles and telescopes."
Perhaps in the future, we will see sensors made from graphene used in digital cameras.
