SENSOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18041514 Titled 'SENSOR'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a new type of sensor that is capable of identifying and detecting substances. The sensor consists of several layers, including a first conductor layer made of a specific type of semiconductor that generates an electromagnetic wave. This is followed by a non-conductor layer, a second conductor layer, and a third electrode. On the first surface of the first conductor layer, there is a first electrode on one part and a second electrode on the other part. This sensor design allows for the accurate identification and detection of substances.
Original Abstract Submitted
A sensor of the present invention includes, in order, a first conductor layer which is made of a direct transition type semiconductor and generates an electromagnetic wave; a non-conductor layer; a second conductor layer; and a third electrode, in which a first electrode is provided on a part of a first surface of the first conductor layer opposite to the non-conductor layer side, and a second electrode is provided on the other part of the first surface. Thus, the present invention can provide a sensor which identifies and detects a substance.
