Description

Yiming Yuan leads a team that built a light-sensing transistor array modeled on the human eye, in a 2026 paper. Such devices sense an image and start to process it in one place, which saves power. Past versions suffered from weak sideways flow, air damage, and uneven response to light.

The device stacks three atom-thin layers. The top layer moves charge and shields the middle layer from air. The middle layer turns light into charge and lets it pass one way to the base layer, which stores it evenly. The array stayed stable in air for over ten weeks and used very little energy per event. A grid of the devices tracked moving objects in tests, showing the design can handle live scenes.
