In this article, we discuss several applications of SWIR (short-wave infrared) cameras in semiconductor inspection applications. Most of these applications rely on the capability of SWIR cameras to see through…
Food inspection based on sensors for the visual, shortwave infrared, UV and X-ray realms in connection with automated sorting and classification methods has become a major field of application for…
The efficiency of silicon solar cells can be estimated at an early manufacturing stage by deploying photoluminescence detectors. The phenomenon of luminescence, however, is a very weak effect occurring in…
Optical microscopes typically use refractive glass lens systems to examine samples at large magnifications. Unlike infrared camera in MWIR and LWIR, SWIR cameras can operate with standard glass optics and…
Copper indium gallium (di)selenide (CIGS) thin-film cells for solar energy generation offer decisive economical advantages by enabling the manufacture of lightweight and flexible modules. The development of thin-film solar cell…
Thin-film solar cells have essential advantages compared to traditional cells based on silicon wafers. Yet, not much is known about the behaviour of thin-film solar cells under various lighting and…
Solar power generation through thin-film solar cells in CIGS (copper-gallium-indium-diselenide) technology provides crucial economic benefits such as lightweight and flexible modules, requiring only minimal energy and material use for their…
