IMAGE SENSORS AND ELECTRONIC DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240138166 titled 'IMAGE SENSORS AND ELECTRONIC DEVICES
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a patent application for an image sensor that includes a semiconductor substrate with photo-sensing elements, an organic active layer with a singlet fission material, an interlayer with a dielectric material, and optionally a color filter layer.
- The image sensor integrates a plurality of photo-sensing elements on a semiconductor substrate.
- The organic active layer contains a singlet fission material to enhance performance.
- The interlayer, made of a dielectric material, improves the interaction between the organic active layer and the semiconductor substrate.
- The color filter layer, if present, adds color filtering capabilities to the image sensor.
Potential Applications
The technology can be used in digital cameras, smartphones, surveillance systems, and medical imaging devices.
Problems Solved
Enhanced performance and efficiency of image sensors, improved image quality, and reduced noise in image capture.
Benefits
Higher quality images, improved low-light performance, reduced power consumption, and potentially lower manufacturing costs.
Potential Commercial Applications
"Advanced Image Sensor Technology for Enhanced Image Quality and Performance"
Possible Prior Art
Prior art may include existing image sensor technologies with organic active layers and dielectric interlayers, but not specifically incorporating singlet fission materials.
Unanswered Questions
1. How does the singlet fission material in the organic active layer improve the performance of the image sensor? 2. What specific types of dielectric materials are commonly used in interlayers for image sensors, and how do they compare to the ones mentioned in the abstract?
Original Abstract Submitted
an image sensor includes a semiconductor substrate in which a plurality of photo-sensing elements are integrated, an organic active layer on the semiconductor substrate, an interlayer between the organic active layer and the semiconductor substrate, and optionally a color filter layer on the organic active layer. the organic active layer includes a singlet fission material. the interlayer includes a dielectric selected from an oxide, a nitride, oxynitride, fluoride, oxyfluoride, and any combination thereof.
