  • Apparatus for optically combining visible images with far-infrared images
    Patent number: 8194171
    Abstract: An image sensing apparatus, particularly, an apparatus for optically combining visible images with far-infrared images is provided in which performing a separate signal processing may not be needed. The image combining apparatus emits light that is sensed by an image sensor, and reflects the light toward the image sensor in response to far-infrared rays being sensed from an object, thereby converting far-infrared information into information that can be sensed by the image sensor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 22, 2009
    Date of Patent: June 5, 2012
    Assignees: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology

  • OPTICAL-INFRARED COMPOSITE SENSOR AND METHOD OF FABRICATING THE SAME
    Publication number: 20100084556
    Abstract: Provided are an optical-infrared composite sensor and a method of fabricating the same. The optical-infrared composite sensor can sense both optical and infrared radiation. The optical-infrared composite sensor includes an infrared sensor formed on a substrate, a silicon cap enveloping the infrared sensor to vacuum-package the infrared sensor, and an optical sensor formed at one side of the silicon cap.
