A strategic collaboration between Raynergy Tek and Avantama AG has significantly accelerated the overall development of organic photodetector (OPD) stacks, by implementing a novel device architecture with better manufacturability.
Organic photodetectors (OPD) have attracted broad attention for image sensor applications, owing to organic semiconducting (OSC) technology’s innate characteristics, i.e. high absorption coefficient, tunable spectral response, and ease of large area fabrication. Recently, Raynergy Tek has successfully developed an all-solution processed, near infrared (NIR), top illuminated OPD device with an outstanding external quantum efficiency exceeding 60% at a wavelength of 940 nm. Notably, this achievement has been enabled by the support of Avantama AG and their proprietary carriertransporting metal-oxide materials. Avantama’s metal oxide-based interlayers possess robust coating properties and exhibit great compatibility with Rayne
