About
Invention This invention provides an approach to grow MgS thin film directly on a GaAs substrate. UV detector can be fabricated using this method with a photoresponse below a predetermined wavelength, which is useful in fire detection and other industrial applications. Marketing Opportunity Fire/flame detector based on this novel UV detector provides advantages over conventional smoke or fire detectors as it is compact in design, with fast response, lower false alarm rate and low interfering effect. The usage in chemical/biological reagent detectors is also feasible. Key Benefits Low production cost, long life time and compact in size Usage of multiple detections without interfering effect Operated in zero-bias mode without the need of external power supply
