Abstract
A sensing apparatus that includes a plurality of sensing pixels is provided. The sensing pixels are arranged in an array, and each of the sensing pixels includes an active device and a sensing device. The sensing device is electrically connected to the active device, and the sensing device includes a first electrode layer, an amorphous silicon layer, a second electrode layer, and a graphene layer. The amorphous silicon layer is located on the first electrode layer. The second electrode layer is located on the amorphous silicon layer and has an opening. The graphene layer is in contact with the second electrode layer and the amorphous silicon layer.
