Ultra-thin Detector Captures Unprecedented Range of Light
College Park MD (SPX) Sep 10, 2014 - New research at the University of Maryland could lead to a generation of light detectors that can see below the surface of bodies, walls, and other objects. Using the special properties of graphene, a two-dimensional form of carbon that is only one atom thick, a prototype detector is able to see an extraordinarily broad band of wavelengths. Included in this range is a band of light wavelen ... more
