Description

Yilin Zhao leads a ten-author team building flexible transistors in 2026 that sense light, store charge, and process signals in one device, mimicking a retina. Organic visual sensors promise such all-in-one behavior, yet fast charge transport and long charge trapping usually trade off against each other.

Their trick is a mixed dielectric layer pairing aluminum oxide with a polymer, deposited at low temperature. Devices moved charge quickly, answered light in 30 microseconds, held stored charge for over ten years in projection, and survived many write cycles. Recognition tests scored 99.49 percent for gestures and 92.56 percent for faces. Linked to a neural network chip, the system detected faces in real time despite interference.
