Abstract
The invention developed by the University of Central Florida and Massachusetts Institute of Technology is a night-vision enabling flat lens made of a metamaterial consisting of the following:
- A heterostructure of single or multilayer graphene
- Nonlinear 2D material or nonlinear 3D thin film
- Au or Ag nanodisk or nanocube array for focusing
The flat lens enables all-optical night-vision without the need for any bulky optical system, electronic transduction and internal screen.
Benefit
Upconversion from all infrared bands to the visible rangeFlat lens creates very little torque on the neck of the wearerMarket Application
Ultralight, coherent broadband 3D color night-vision systems
