Thermal vision: Graphene light detector first to span infrared spectrum

Posted: 16 Mar 2014 12:32 PM PDT

The first room-temperature light detector that can sense the full infrared spectrum has the potential to put heat vision technology into a contact lens. Unlike comparable mid- and far-infrared detectors currently on the market, the new detector doesn't need bulky cooling equipment to work.
