The barrier structure is designed to enhance the operating temperature of the infrared detector, thereby improving the efficiency of collecting photogenerated carriers and reducing dark current generation, without suppressing the photocurrent. However, the development of barrier detectors using conventional materials is limited due to the strict requirements for lattice and band matching. In this study, a high-performance unipolar barrier detector is designed utilizing a black arsenic phosphorus/molybdenum disulfide/black phosphorus van der Waals heterojunction. The device exhibits a broad response bandwidth ranging from visible light to mid-wave infrared (520 nm to 4.6 µm), with a blackbody detectivity of 2.7 × 10 cmHz W in the mid-wave infrared range at room temperature. Moreover, the optical absorption anisotropy of black arsenic phosphorus enables polarization resolution detection, achieving a polarization extinction ratio of 35.5 at 4.6 µm. Mid-wave infrared imaging of the device is successfully demonstrated at room temperature, highlighting the significant potential of barrier devices based on van der Waals heterojunctions in mid-wave infrared detection.

Article Synopsis
- Detection of mid-infrared (MIR) light is vital for various technologies like night vision and thermal imaging, yet traditional methods often require complex setups or cooling.
- This study introduces a novel approach using two-dimensional metal halide perovskites (2D-MHPs) that enables high-sensitivity detection of MIR light at room temperature, with capabilities down to 1 nanowatt per square micrometer.
- The technology achieves further sensitivity improvements using unique membrane structures and photonic strategies, covering a range of infrared wavelengths from 2 to 10.6 micrometers, paving the way for advancements in areas like environmental monitoring and molecular sensing.
With the rapid advancement of multi-band detection technologies, military and civilian equipment face an increasing risk of being detected, posing significant challenges to traditional single-band camouflage designs. To address this issue, this study presents an innovative multilayer structure using Ge, Cu, and ZnSe materials to achieve triple-band infrared camouflage, visible camouflage, and radiative cooling. The structure exhibits low emissivity in the short-wave infrared (SWIR, 1.

The cooled mid-wave infrared biomimetic compound eye camera has wide range of applications, such as industrial inspection, military project, and security. Due to the low resolution of individual eyes and the large field view of the imaging system, existing motion target enhancement and detection algorithms cannot effectively detect all potential targets. To address this issue, we propose an improved elementary motion detector model that combines a double-layer ON_OFF channel and a cross-type computational architecture, which is able to suppress a stationary background and enhance moving targets.

High-temperature furnaces and coal-fired boilers are widely employed in the petrochemical and metal-smelting sectors. Over time, the deterioration, corrosion, and wear of pipelines can lead to equipment malfunctions and safety incidents. Nevertheless, effective real-time monitoring of equipment conditions remains insufficient, primarily due to the interference caused by flames generated from fuel combustion.
