Abstract

Color discrimination in photodetection is conventionally achieved using broadband-absorbing inorganic semiconductors with passive optical filters. Organic semiconductors show promise to deliver narrowband spectral responses due to their tunable optical properties. While achieving narrow-absorbing or...
