  • Optical sensor and detector for an optical detection
    Patent number: 11908956
    Abstract: Described herein is an optical sensor, a detector including the optical sensor for an optical detection of at least one object, and a method for manufacturing the optical sensor. The optical sensor (110) includes a substrate (120); a photoconductive layer (112) applied to a first portion (116) of a surface (118) of the substrate (120); and at least one electrode layer (124) applied to a second portion (126) of the surface (118) of the substrate (120). The optical sensor (110) exhibits a linear current-voltage characteristic according to Ohm's law.

  • OPTICAL SENSOR AND DETECTOR FOR AN OPTICAL DETECTION
    Publication number: 20220093811
    Abstract: Described herein is an optical sensor, a detector including the optical sensor for an optical detection of at least one object, a method for manufacturing the optical sensor and various uses of the optical detector. The optical sensor can be supplied as a non-bulky hermetic package which provides an increased degree of protection against possible degradation by humidity and/or oxygen over long terms. Further, the optical sensor may be easily manufactured and integrated on a circuit carrier device.

  • Optical detector
    Patent number: 11060922
    Abstract: The invention relates to a detector (110) for optical detection comprising a circuit carrier (130) designed to carry at least one layer, wherein the circuit carrier (130) is or comprises a printed circuit board (132); a reflective layer (138), the reflective layer (138) being placed on a partition of the circuit carrier (130), wherein the reflective layer (138) is designed to reflect the incident light beam (120), thereby generating at least one reflected light beam (124); a substrate layer (114), the substrate layer (114) being directly or indirectly adjacent to the reflective layer (138), wherein the substrate layer (114) is at least partially transparent with respect to the incident light beam (120); a sensor layer (122), the sensor layer (122) being placed on the substrate layer (114), wherein the sensor layer (122) is designed to generate at least one sensor signal in a manner dependent on an illumination of the sensor layer (122) by the incident light beam and the reflected light beam (124); and an eval
