Abstract: Presented here is a system to record high-resolution infrared images without the need to include additional stand-alone sensors into the mobile device. According to one embodiment, an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display is modified to emit IR and near-IR light in a large field. The modified display allows for depth sensing and infrared imaging without a stand-alone emitter. Additionally, an IR shutter filter can be applied to the existing front facing red, green, blue (RGB) camera that would only be in place when the display is in IR emission mode. The combination of these two technologies allows a facial recognition system using existing hardware, and not require additional sensors or emitters to achieve face recognition.

Abstract: An integrated microfabricated vapor cell sensor includes a transparent sensor cell body. The cell body has a cavity for a sensor fluid vapor which is covered by a first plate attached to the cell body. The sensor has a first signal path extending from a first signal emitter, through the cell body, through the cavity, through the cell body again, and to a first signal detector, and a second signal path extending through the cavity. The second signal path intersects the first signal path in the cavity. The second signal path may extend through the cell body, or may extend through the first plate. The signal emitters and signal detectors are located in the integrated microfabricated vapor cell sensor.

Abstract: A photodiode comprising a photoactive spinel oxide layer is described. This photoactive spinel oxide layer forms a contact with both a light absorption layer of quantum dots, quantum wires, or quantum rods, and an inorganic substrate layer. In some embodiments, the inorganic substrate layer and the photoactive spinel oxide layer form an isotype junction. Methods of characterizing the photodiode are provided and demonstrate commercially relevant electrical and optoelectronic properties, particularly the ability to operate as a photodetector with a high photosensitivity. An economical process for preparing the photodiode is provided as well as applications.

Abstract: A superconducting medium includes a first layer made of a first superconductor and a second layer made of a second superconductor. The first layer has a first thickness less than a first coherence length of the first superconductor. The second layer has a second thickness less than a second coherence length of the second superconductor so as to induce a proximity effect between the first layer and the second layer. The proximity effect can induce desirable properties in the resulting superconducting medium. Controlling the thickness ratio of the first layer to the second layer can also tune the property of the superconducting medium.

Abstract: The approach relates to a procedure for determining a signal transmission quality of a light transmission path, which consists of a light transmitter on one end and a light receiver on its other end. A transmitter code is received in a first step. The transmitter code hereby represents a signal which is transmitted from the light transmitter to the light receiver. In a further step the receiver code is read in. The receiver code hereby represents a signal which was provided by the light receiver by using the transmitter code. The determining of a degree of correspondency between the transmitter code and the receiver code is performed in a final step of determining, in order to define the signal transmission quality of the light transmission path.

Abstract: Improved wafer-scale testing of optoelectronic devices, such as CMOS image scan devices, is provided. A probe card includes an LED light source corresponding to each device under test in the wafer. The LED light sources provide light from a phosphor illuminated by the LED. A pinhole and lens arrangement is used to collimate the light provided to the devices under test. Uniformity of illumination can be provided by closed loop control of the LED light sources using internal optical signals as feedback signals, in combination with calibration data relating the optical signal values to emitted optical intensity. Uniformity of illumination can be further improved by providing a neutral density filter for each LED light source to improve uniformity from one source to another and/or to improve uniformity of the radiation pattern from each LED light source.
