Quantum Material Integrated Optoelectronics for Disruptive Technologies
Despite the significant progress on the wafer-based optoelectronics, providing a broad optical response with a mechanically robust and optically seamless device structure remains as an outstanding challenge. This challenge mainly hinders the realization of disruptive technologies such as hyperspectral imaging and skin-integration of wearables for clinically accurate telemedicine. In this talk, I will briefly explain some novel nanomaterial-based approaches and the resulting devices that I have developed to provide solutions for image sensing, optical extraction of vital signs, and manipulation of light in broad range of wavelengths. By focusing on the physics lying behind the demonstrated novel optoelectronic devices, I will show the results of my research that benefits from the intrinsic mechanical flexibility and charge carrier properties of low dimensional materials. To show the promises of my approaches, I will share information on the proof-of-concept devices and provide methodological insight into the CMOS integration and wearable use of quantum materials empowering next generation optoelectronics for hyperspectral imaging and telemedicine.
