CQD SWIR Sensors
SWIR Vision Systems® has introduced a new class of cameras featuring a 400nm to 2,100nm broadband sensitivity. The image sensor technology is based on colloidal quantum dot (CQD®) thin film photodiodes fabricated monolithically on silicon readout wafers.
These SWIR sensors parallel the achievements of CMOS and microbolometer sensors in the visible and longwave IR spectra, respectively.
Namely, they leverage the scale and cost structure of the silicon integrated circuit industry, moving SWIR imaging from a specialized niche into broad commercial markets.
CQD SWIR Sensors:
Acuros 4 and Acuros 6SWIR Vision Systems now offers 4 MP and 6 MP short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) image sensors for Defense, Scientific, Automotive, and Industrial Users. Available in 2025, these sensors will mark the highest CQD SWIR and eSWIR resolutions available.
