The Development of an Infrared Camera Using Graphene: Achieving Efficient High-Resolution Infrared Images

High-performance quatum infrared cameras are substantially expensive and complicated in comparison to general visible light cameras. Producing a high-resolution infrared camera is especially difficult due to the lack of suitable photon absorption materials in the infrared spectrum and various challenges involved in design, manufacturing, and characterization. Graphene, a novel oneatomic- layer-thick carbon material, is a promising building block for the nextgeneration nanoelectronic and optoelectronic devices [1]. Graphene exhibits remarkably high conductivity [2], high electron mobility [3], [4], and a unique band structure [5], [6], which allows it to operate as nano infrared detectors [7], [8].
