Title: Thermal Imaging with Plasmon Resonance Enhanced HgTe Colloidal Quantum Dot Photovoltaic Devices. Author: Tang X, Ackerman MM, Guyot-Sionnest P. Journal: ACS Nano; 2018 Jul 24; 12(7):7362-7370. PubMed ID: 29985583. Abstract: Thermal imaging in the midwave infrared plays an important role for numerous applications. The key functionality is imaging devices in the atmospheric window between 3 and 5 μm, where disturbance from fog, dust, and other atmospheric influence could be avoided. Here, we demonstrate sensitive thermal imaging with HgTe colloidal quantum dot (CQD) photovoltaic detectors by integrating the HgTe CQDs with plasmonic structures. The responsivity at 5 μm is enhanced 2- to 3-fold over a wide range of operating temperatures from 295 to 85 K. A detectivity of 4 × 1011 Jones is achieved at cryogenic temperature. The noise equivalent temperature difference is 14 mK at an acquisition rate of 1 kHz for a 200 μm pixel. Thermal images are captured with a single-pixel scanning imaging system.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
