#NextGenPD - Next Generation Photo-and-radiation detectors
Efficient, sensitive and wavelength-selective light detection has become central to modern consumer electronics, and also in science and technology. Photodetectors based on crystalline inorganic elemental materials such as silicon and compound semiconductors are the core of today’s photodetectors. However, a new trend has begun: next generation semiconductors such as organics, perovskites, and nanocrystals are now becoming increasingly interesting candidates for low noise, color-selective, efficient photodetection. This symposium will focus on next-generation photodetectors. New materials, device architectures and characterisation protocols for photodetectors will be foci
- Perovskite photodetectors
- Organic photodetectors
- Nanocrystals and low dimensional systems for photodetection
- Color-selective and infrared photodetection
- Image sensors with new generation semiconductors
- Thermodynamic limit of the sensitivity of next generation photodetectors
- Photodetector characterisation methods
- Noise, from theory to experiment
- Photomultiplication and amplification
- New compound semiconductors for photodetection
- LiFi and optical wireless communication
- Special applications: X-ray detection, biological applications and wearable sensors
- Pixelation techniques and imaging
