A Highly Sensitive Pyroresistive All‐Organic Infrared Bolometer

Abstract

Bilayer films, composed of a thin-layer of pyroresistive submicrometer-sized crystals on top of a polymeric thin film, can be used both as a direct-contact thermometer and as passive infrared sensor. These materials are capable of detecting, radiation of a wide-range of wavelengths very rapidly and reversibly, as well as recognizing distant objects with applications in robotics, biomedicine, and human health care. As a service to our authors and readers, this journal provides supporting information supplied by the authors. Such materials are peer reviewed and may be re-organized for online delivery, but are not copy-edited or typeset. Technical support issues arising from supporting information (other than missing files) should be addressed to the authors.
