  • Patent number: 9362453
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a near-infrared light-emitting diode (LED) and the method for manufacturing the same. When preparing the light-emitting layer of the near-infrared LED according to the present invention, the CsSnXX?2 solution is coated on the substrate having the hole transport layer. Then, by a drying process, the solvent is moved away and the CsSnXX?2 solution is solidified, crystallized to CsSnXX?2 in the perovskite structure, which is used as the light-emitting layer of the near-infrared LED and emits near infrared. X and X? are identical or different halogen elements. In addition, according to the present invention, lead can be used to replace a part of tin. By adjusting the ratio of lead and tin or adopting different combination of halogen elements, the wavelength of the generated near infrared varies.

    Abstract: A pressure detector is disclosed having an organic transistor, a pressure-detecting layer and a first electrode. The organic transistor includes an emitter, an organic layer, a grid formed with holes, and a collector, the organic layer being sandwiched between the emitter and the collector. The pressure-detecting layer is formed on the organic transistor such that the collector is sandwiched between the organic layer and the pressure-detecting layer. The first electrode is formed on the pressure-detecting layer such that the pressure-detecting layer is sandwiched between the collector and the first electrode. The area of the active region of the pressure detector is determined by the overlapped area of the electrodes, thereby reducing the pitch of the electrodes and thus the size of the pressure detector.
