Abstract

An overview of the requirements for flexible image sensor arrays is given. Sensor devices based on amorphous silicon and polymeric bulk heterostructures are analyzed and compared. A comparison of organic and inorganic sensor performance under applied stress is given, and a charge-map testing and characterization technique for flexible arrays is described. Finally, the fabrication of a flexible organic sensor array is presented.
