An article published in the journal “Nature Photonics” describes the development of the first graphene-based camera. A team of researchers from the Institute of Photonic Sciences (ICFO) integrated a CMOS-type circuit with graphene creating a high resolution image sensor consisting of hundreds of thousands of graphens-based photodetectors and quantum dots. The camera is sensitive to ultraviolet, visible and infrared light at the same time.
