  Innovation Toronto has been running since 2007 and as such is getting a little old in terms of its constituent parts. the theme in particular has been a problem mainly because we relied too much on some of the components attached to it and therefore could not move on without extensive work. it is now come to the point where that extensive work is going to produce good results. we are already in the process of updating and upgrading various parts of it and over time will make sure that each and every post has been Revisited and revamped so it presents as best it can.

miniaturized infrared detectors

This is how the IR spectrometer works: The photodetector, fabricated on top of a surface optical waveguide, consists of a bottom gold electrode at the bottom functioning as a scattering center, a photoactive layer (consisting of colloidal mercury telluride – HgTe – quantum dots), and a top gold electrode. By moving the mirror, the measured photocurrent maps the light intensity of the standing wave. i.e. the IR light. A Fourier transformation of the measured signal gives the optical spectra.
