Abstract
Disclosed is a device for up-conversion of Short Wavelength Infra-Red (SWIR) images into visible images. The device comprises a sub micrometer thickness structure that is composed of several sub-layers, each having a typical thickness of tens to hundreds of nanometers. The device is composed of two main sections one on top of the other: (a) a highly efficient SWIR absorption thin layer and (b) a highly efficient organic light emitted diode (OLED). The generated visible image is emitted from the OLED through a top transparent cathode, which is deposited on the OLED.
