Based on recent advancement in high upconversion efficiency rare-earth-element (REE) nanoparticles and their application in organic polymer LEDs (OLED), IPITEK, teamed with Prof. Andrew Steckl of the University of Cincinnati, proposes a novel two-dimensional OLED Array (2D-OLEDA) to address dual use infrared (IR) sensing and detection needs. The 2D-OLEDA represents a new generation IR detection system, incorporating novel REE-nanoparticles with high upconversion efficiency into OLED device structures. The proposed 2D-OLEDA system will combine many attractive new features
