Abstract

Some embodiments relate to an integrated device including a first thin film transistor (TFT) arranged over a substrate; a second TFT arranged over the substrate; a metal barrier layer arranged over the second TFT, where the metal barrier layer is configured to block incident radiation from reaching the second TFT; a Fresnel lens arranged over the first TFT, where the Fresnel lens is configured to focus incident radiation towards the first TFT; and where the first TFT and the second TFT are configured to be coupled to a differential amplifier, the differential amplifier being operable to detect the incident radiation by comparison of a first leakage current from the first TFT to a second leakage current from the second TFT.
